FW: Creativity: The Path to Belonging: AAIDD Creative Arts Interest Network Robin Troutman 17 Apr 2019 12:32 EDT

Dear Friends,
The AAIDD Creative Arts Interest Network is developing a collection of 90-second promotion videos showcasing creative organizations and programs supporting our theme
"Creativity: The Path to Belonging".

What is the AAIDD Creative Arts Interest Network?
We are a "Community of Practice" whose members are encouraged to enjoy supportive fellowship and the free exchange of knowledge, ideas, research, and practice as we work together to enhance the lives of children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through creative arts. We are one of the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (AAIDD) Interest Networks.

What is the purpose of "Creativity: The Path to Belonging"?
As individuals who understand that Creativity leads to belonging for individuals with disabilities, our project is designed to raise awareness of the unique and varied ways that creativity promotes a sense of community and belonging across all people.

Who can participate?
Any organization or group who adheres to the belief that creativity, community, and belonging go hand in hand and wishes to share their creative work with others.

How will the video be used?
We will assemble submissions and create one long video that will be shown at our registration table at the upcoming AAIDD conference (June 24-27 at St. Paul, Minnesota). The video will be posted on our Facebook page, and will also be used to promote other project purposes.
