We Are Artists

By Eliza Martin

Art is for everyone in this inclusive celebration of disability and creativity.

Join a joyful crew of young disabled artists as they paint, dance, sculpt, build, and perform an art piece in their neighborhood. From squishing paint under wheelchair tires to feeling the swishy silk of a costume to telling stories with their hands, eyes, and voices, the artists engage their senses and show that art is as much about play and process as it is about a finished creation.

Backmatter includes an art activity that highlights inclusive and accessible tools and techniques, plus a behind-the-scenes exploration of how the book was made, with contributions from the author, the illustrator, and from multidisciplinary artist and disability justice activist Shay Erlich.
