40^th Sister Kenny Art Show

Artists from across the United States, and as far away as Greece, have submitted artwork for the Sister Kenny Rehabilitation Institute’s 40th Annual International Art Show by Artists with Disabilities.  This year’s show features approximately 200 artists and more than 300 pieces of art.

The grand opening is scheduled for April 24 from 5-8 p.m. on the second floor of Sister Kenny at Abbott Northwestern Hospital, located at 28th and Chicago in Minneapolis.  Admission and parking are free for the grand opening.  Regular exhibit and sale hours extend through May 26—weekdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“The art show is a 40-year tradition of which we are very proud,” said Nancy Larkin, director of operations.  “Sister Kenny’s mission is all about helping individuals make progress towards their personal best and our art show is an extension of that—highlighting the abilities of those who experience physical or mental limitations.”
