Insane Films: The Arts of Life


A documentary short about the Arts of Life collective in Chicago where developmentally disabled adults get paid to produce art. These are people who previously were ignored or marginalized in traditional programs for disabled people. Visit http://www.artsoflife.org/. “Established in 2000, the Arts of Life is an artistic community that provides adults with developmental disabilities an environment to experience personal growth.”

WOW! Great short film. And this is an amazing program for adults living with mental retardation.

Some of the art is actually very interesting. I would totally hang the “Goils” on my wall. BTW, Madge, when you’re in drag, you look really faggy.
