“ How far can we go?”

“Practice more, go further!”

“Are you sure?”

Running for a marathon, you increase your mileage week by week and then in the bug day, for your effort paid, you will complete the marathon and even break your last Personal Best.

We are happy to see the enjoyment our art lovers with intellectual disabilities have and the changes they have undergone during these years. We believe art colours their lives. Art is essential if their quality of life is to be enhanced. We now want to know how far can we go with them together, and what will be next, as regards as art?

As yet, we are still searching for this answer and we would like to seek this answer with you and all members in the community together, no matter you are an artist, an art lover, people with intellectual disabilities (PWID), a social worker, a rehabilitation worker, a practitioner in education, a parent or a community member who just loves your community. Let us explore in this International Art Conference for PWID cum Carnival.

We want to explore the following fields:

1. Right of PWID to participate in art and cultural activities;
2. Appreciation and facilitation of the hidden artistic talents of PWID;
3. Promoting their artistic creations;
4. Art as a road to dignity and empowerment, and further to build art as career
