You may already know Visionaries + Voices artists from P&G’s Bounty Artist Inclusive Project. Now you have the opportunity to experience how their super powers can elevate your own creative process and outcomes. Three creative shops will team up with Visionaries + Voices artists disabilities for a week of collaboration. You’re invited to witness as they present their ideas, enhanced by uncommonly brilliant neurodivergent creators.
V+V will kick-off the presentation by telling us about V+V+U, their professional art resource for corporations and brands. Then, each of the creative groups will present their experiences and ideas from the past week. You’ll call it complementary, disruptive, or just plain awesome. Either way, you’ll be a better creative for it.
Visionaries + Voices is a progressive art studio in Cincinnati, OH which provides creative, professional, and educational opportunities to artists with disabilities.

We may be small, but our commitment is big. It’s the same commitment our students make to themselves: to make the best art they can. The Art Academy of Cincinnati has kept that commitment since 1869, building a rich tradition of innovation and excellence in the visual arts.
The Art Academy is one of the smallest four-year art colleges in the country, and that’s one of our greatest strengths: It means our students really get to be themselves. They receive individualized attention from faculty, the freedom to develop their personal vision, and a unique opportunity to carve out their identity.
