At Interact we focus on possibilities, not disabilities. You do not have to be an accomplished artist to join our community; rather, we look for individuals who are motivated to grow their artistic skills in a creative environment.
Our staff are professional and practicing artists themselves, who are equipped to mentor you in ways that maximize your artistic pursuits as well as provide excellent support for your health and safety needs.
In order to reach your full potential, we require a commitment of at least three days a week.
The Admission Process:
Step 1: Inquiry & Application
An interested artist, family member, case manager, etc. inquires about services. If you have questions about our program, fill out the “I’M INTERESTED” form below to speak directly with the Director of Licensing & Recruitment, or simply complete the “APPLICATION PACKET” to apply!
Step 2: Screening & Tours
After an interested artist returns a completed application packet, a tour and/or initial screening will be scheduled. Partially completed applications will not be accepted. During the initial tour/screening, Interact program specifics will be discussed and the interested artist should be prepared to discuss their motivation in wanting to join the program.
Step 3: Experience Day
After the tour/screening, an artist may or may not be invited back to participate in an experience day at the center. This experience day gives the artist an opportunity to participate fully in a day of programming before committing. Interact staff will also have the day to work with the artist to ensure the program has adequate supports and will be a good program fit.
Step 4: Intake Meeting
An intake meeting with the full support team will be scheduled and completed for those artists accepted into the program.
Step 5: START!
After the intake meeting, the artist can start attending! Woohoo!
