Once again, the Center’s Annual Expressive Arts Performance proved that creativity is not bound by disability. On Friday, May 21^st, “Masquerade” was presented at the Alfred and Rose Miniaci Performing Arts Center at Nova Southeastern University.  The event featured an exhibition of original artwork, an arts & crafts station for guests to create their own masquerade masks, and an original musical performance.  Guests mingled with the Center’s artists at a reception while enjoying an exhibition of the Ann Storck Center’s Permanent Collection as well as pieces focusing on the “Masquerade” theme of the evening. Following the exhibition and reception, guests experienced the immense creativity of the participants in the Center’s Expressive Arts Program in the musical performance “Masquerade,” which featured original songs, scripts, and sets created by the program participants. 

The Annual Expressive Arts Performance increases self-esteem and provides an opportunity for the unique accomplishments of individuals with developmental disabilities to be showcased in this annual event. “The show has become such an important highlight for the participants,” said Stacey Lorea, Director of Expressive Arts and Marketing.   “They put so much of themselves into the entire production.  To receive recognition and appreciation of their talents from members of the community is so wonderful.”
