The Special Arts program at SLC Arts is designed to meet the needs of people with developmental disabilities.

It provides opportunities for adults and students with cognitive disabilities, autism and severe learning disabilities to participate in supportive and therapeutic group activities. Group members are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities including singing, movement, dancing, playing instruments, painting, and other arts exploration designed to stimulate the senses, encourage creativity, and increase socialization.

The Special Arts program is supported in part by the Sweetgrass Foundation, Rotary Club of Potsdam, and Knights of Columbus Sarto Council #1059.
