Adaptive Art Resources

As art educators, we encourage students of all abilities to create and engage with art. Enjoy this library of videos from Bette Naughton, author of Adaptive Art: Deconstructing Disability in the Art Classroom. You’ll find a wealth of practical advice and demonstrations of adaptations that will enable students with disabilities to engage in the creative process of making art.
