Congrats to the Interact Center

Interact Center for the Visual and Performing Arts was featured in the Twin Cities Public Television's new weekly arts series, MN Original. Watch it online.

Founded in 1992 as a professional theater company that included actors with disabilities, Interact expanded its vision in 1996 to become a recognized center for both the performing and visual arts.

Today, Interact Center is the only center nationally that offers professional-level training, performances, and exhibitions in multiple artistic disciplines, for artists with a wide range of disabilities, from physical to developmental to mental to behavioral. At Interact, adult artists with disabilities explore and expand their creativity as actors, writers, painters, sculptors and musicians.

Please check their website for updates on upcoming exhibitions and performances.
