About the No Limits Arts Series
The No Limits Arts Series aims to strengthen inclusiveness and remove social barriers in the arts for individuals with disabilities. In keeping with the goals of No Limits: An Arts Series Focused on Access for All, initially made possible by the Strengthening Indianapolis Through Arts and Cultural Innovation grant from Lilly Endowment, IBCF brings artists of all abilities to the stage that mirror the strengths and abilities of students at ISBVI.
ISBVI's move due to construction on a renovated campus has sparked new IBCF partnerships and inspired creative adaptability. Starting in 2025, IBCF will partner with Butler University Arts and Events Center to host annual No Limits Celebrations at the Schrott Center for the Arts. Support from Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation will help IBCF transition and grow No Limits programming over this next year.
