People Incorporated’s Artability program is a celebration of the creativity and contributions of people with mental illnesses to our community. A series of art and writing workshops lead up to the multi-day Artability Show & Sale held each fall. Artists may sell their work at the show and receive 80% of the profits, with the remaining 20% going back to support the Artability program. Writers also contribute their creative work to an anthology available for sale at the show.
Starting on Thursday, October 26 through Saturday, October 28, the Artability Show & Sale will be free and open to the public. See over 450 works from over 100 painters, drawers, photographers and sculptors.
The 2017 show will be held at the Great Hall in Saint Paul and be open at the following times:
Thursday, October 26
10am - 8pm (Artist Awards Ceremony at 6pm)
