This moving Advocacy Through the Arts showcase is produced by Friends Life Community. Seven original works will be highlighted as artists with disabilities respond to the question: “How do you want the world to see you?” This uplifting performance features a mix of dance performances, original music, and artful films curated in collaboration by Nashville artists, written and directed by artists with disabilities.
