Kristin Otwell

For nearly 20 years, Kristin Otwell and Joan Burleigh have given people living with disabilities a place to express themselves artistically – without pressure, threat, or competitiveness. At Art Explorers in Fort Bragg, CA, these artists-in-the-making have found friends who feel like family, and an art studio that feels like home. Here, they have freedom of personal expression and a place to grow through their participation in the visual arts. And they can host exhibits to show and sell their work!
