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 300 pieces annually. Artists are limited to four entries each.
Artists with a disability from around the world submit work for review. Phase 1 is online only. Artists are then invited to submit the physical work for the on-site show and jury review. The physical work is juried by a panel of jurors who present over $4,000 in monetary awards annually. Artists may choose to sell work their work on-site or online. All artists have a disability.
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 fair market value. Courage Kenny Rehabilitation 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!
The 2021 Art of Possibilities Art Show & Sale was proudly supported by our legacy presenting sponsor Smead Manufacturing Company. The show is also made possible by our generous gold level sponsors, API Group and a gift from the Courage Kenny Foundation Board Members. It is also sponsored by our silver sponsor Art of the West magazine, and individual contributions from donors, artists and volunteers. This activity is also made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.

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.
