Arts for All Wisconsin represents artists with disabilities at multiple venues and community events to showcase and sell their art. 70% of each sale goes directly to the artist, and 30% supports our inclusive arts programs. From the annual Art Fair on the Square in Madison to Corporate and Community Exhibitions, Arts for All Wisconsin facilitates exhibition and sales opportunities of exemplary, original artworks by artists with disabilities.

Through exhibitions and arts sales, we provide a platform for artists with disabilities to develop their unique voice, connect with community, and sell their work. For emerging artists, these opportunities can help build confidence in a supportive environment as they begin to build their careers. We believe that the arts have the unique ability to build bridges between people, and when we highlight the creativity of local artists with disabilities, we build a more connected Wisconsin.

Creative Power Collection

Each spring, jurors select ten works of visual art from hundreds of submissions to our annual Call for Art to be added to the Creative Power Collection, an exhibition of 30 visual artworks that travels to libraries, galleries, and public buildings throughout the state each year. Each award-winning work spends three years as part of the Creative Power Exhibition.

Art For Your Space

We have art. You have space. It's a simple equation.

Having art on your walls, whether in your front lobby or a conference room, is the perfect way to introduce creativity and imagination into your space. It gives your staff and colleagues something to admire and talk about. It also supports artists with disabilities throughout Wisconsin.

And it is all for sale. 70% of each sale goes directly to the artist.

For more information and to arrange a Curated Collection in your space please contact us.

"It continues to amaze me how much my artwork has taken off since associating with Arts for All Wisconsin. It is such a wonderful experience that is a result of becoming labeled as an artist through AFA. I am now defined more than ever by my ability rather than disability."

- Dan Sullivan, AFA Artist and wood sculptor
