“AMA is Ally’s ‘HAPPY PLACE’! She loves to paint, draw and sculpt, but it is more than just art for her. Ally is developing social skills, better hand-eye coordination, increasing her fine & gross motor abilities and showing pride in her accomplishments. Her work is truly amazing, but the new skills and confidence she gains while at AMA is the true reward!"
The mission of Awakening Minds is to provide therapeutic, educational & developmental programs to all ages & all abilities.
Utilizing art as a vehicle, non-art related goals that aid in an individual’s success outside of the studio are the ultimate focus for each and every student. Goals often relate to Visual Art education, Academic IEP goals, fine/gross motor goals, behavioral goals and more. Programming is designed for the entire lifespan (all ages) and for typically developing or developmentally delayed (all abilities), often integrating the populations. Instructors travel to 18 counties in Northwest Ohio to nursing homes, hospitals, rehab centers, schools, day-hab centers & more to provide a wide variety of services. Instructors also provide programs inside of our three studios located in Findlay (home office), Lima & Leipsic. On average, Awakening Minds Art services 1,000 individuals per month!
