With winter weather all around us, it is hard to imagine March is just a few months away, and the Fisher Arts Council is partnering with Conner Prairie and the Fishers Advisory Committee on Disability for a a special call for artists.  These events will feature small performing arts groups that invite individuals with developmental or intellectual disabilities to show off their talent at Conner Prairie and at FAC’s Collaboration Hub Gallery.  All three partners, in sponsoring these shows, describe this as a way to demonstrate the importance of all artists as the community celebrates “Building Our Future Together” during 2023 March Disability Awareness Month in the City of Fishers.
