Arts Unbound is a non-profit organization dedicated to the artistic achievement of youth, adults and senior citizens with disabilities.
The show also is a way to kick off the Caldwell College Center for Autism and Applied Behavior Analysis, which is opening soon. The colleges says the center is a state-of-the-art facility that will provide cutting-edge intervention services for children with autism spectrum disorder and their families.
