The multimedia work ranges from a bright pastel drawing of dinosaurs eating while a meteor is traveling above them to wrestling inspired images as well as many abstract works. The goal of the exhibit is to highlight the artistic achievements of individuals with disabilities and provide opportunities to exhibit and sell their artwork statewide. The event is free and open ot the public.

"We are honored to exhibit at Ghost Ranch Piedra Lumbre Education Center, a site enriched by Georgia O'Keefe's work and life inspiring many different people in different ways", said Lina Jabra, Community Development Director.
