Exceptional art by exceptional students

graphic: exhibit artWorks by area elementary and middle school students with disabilities will be featured at Sacramento State in the "I Can Do That!" exhibit from noon to 4:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 7 to Saturday, June 25 in the University Library Gallery. A reception will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., Friday, June 10.

The exhibit, sponsored by the University's Services to Students with Disabilities, features works that students have produced through a program of the non-profit Very Special Arts Sacramento. The program links professional artists and teachers with disabled students in local schools, allowing students to learn different art styles such as cubism, pop art, realism and pointillism. Works on display will include paintings, ceramics, mosaics, poetry and other forms of visual art.
