PATC 2022: Call for Artists
On behalf of the Office of Developmental Programs, we are pleased to invite artists on the autism spectrum to exhibit their artwork virtually during the 15th Annual Pennsylvania Autism Training Conference (#PATCImplement2022).
In previous years, prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we were able to offer exhibiting artists a table in the exhibitor area to display and sell their artwork. Since #PATCImplement2022 is online, we would like to offer artists on the autism spectrum an opportunity to showcase their arts and crafts (for example, paintings and drawings, photography, jewelry, greeting cards, pottery, fabric crafts, etc.) on a virtual “art gallery” which will be linked to the conference materials on MyODP.
The art show will consist of images of artwork supplied by the artists, as well as links to their website or email address for further information for attendees who are interested in purchasing works that are for sale.
If you’re interested in exhibiting your work, please complete this brief application: https://drexel.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6RJCHKeFtg5g2mW
