Become a MDAC Artist

The Maggie Daly Arts Cooperative is a Day Support program designed for artists with disabilities who are ready to take the step to full participation in the arts – both independently and collectively – with peer artists, and artists in the community. Candidates should have a strong commitment and interest in art and a sincere desire to engage in the art-making process.
