Since 1963, the mission of the show is to showcase the talents of artists with a disability, provide a forum for artists to sell their work and create a cherished and inclusive event for people of all abilities. Art of Possibilities highlights the abilities of artists with disabilities helping to achieve health, wellness and independence.
We are proud to showcase approximately 500 pieces online and of those about 200 are displayed in person at Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute. Artists are limited to four entries each.
Artists with a disability from around the world submit work for review. Artwork is selected based on quality of work at a reasonable price range. Artists are then invited to participate to display their work one of two ways: (1) online gallery only or (2) online gallery and in-person at Courage Kenny in Golden Valley. All artwork on display in the show is reviewed online by the jury. Art of Possibilities presents over $4,000 in monetary awards annually. All participating artworks must be for sale. Art of Possibilities is the only art show in the world featuring artists with disabilities that returns 100% of the sales proceeds back to the artists.
All the works featured in the Art of Possibilities Art Show & Sale are original pieces of fine art. However, some art mediums do have editions (photography, linocut prints, etc.). The artist determines the total number of reproductions. Please let us know if you have specific questions!
Each artist determines the price for their art. Artists are encouraged to set prices at a reasonable and fair market value. Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute returns 100% of the art sale price directly to the artist.
Art should come ready to hang from the artist. Most artwork is framed by the artist with a wire hanging. The frame is part of the work therefore included in the price.
Art sizes are listed on the art page. Art sizes are approximate and may or may not include the frame. If you need exact dimensions, please let us know.
Art purchases are not considered tax-deductible. If you would like to support the show with a tax-deductible gift, please visit our donation page. Thank you!

We are sure that this won’t happen! 100% of our buyers are very happy with their art purchases because the art looks even better in real life. Given the nature of this art show supporting artists with disabilities and the costs incurred by the artists to submit the art, all art sales are final. We will do everything we can to help make sure the piece you select meets your expectations! Thank you.
Many of our artists accept commissions so please let us know if the work you love is no longer available. We would love to further support artists this way!
For the current show, if the work has been sold, it is indicated on the artwork page. If you are unable to find another work that you love, do not hesitate to get in touch with us as we can suggest other works and some of our artists also accept commissions.
It is a great idea to give the gift of artwork to another person. Not only is art one of a kind, but art from Art of Possibilities is a gift that gives twice. The first gift is the fine art piece to the lucky recipient and the second is the gift of encouragement and validation to the artist with a disability. If you need help with your decision, please reach out to us.
