RECEPTION: July 26, during ADA Celebration
EXHIBITION DATES: July 7-August 14
VIRTUAL EXHIBITION: dnwml.org/dispride25
In a time of upheaval, of unrest, of daily uncertainty at best, I asked artists to emphasize the jubilance and support they experience as members of the disability community.
Our rebellious JOY, our laughter, our playfulness, our ability to build local and national systems of INTERDEPENDENCE, to seek camaraderie, and truly connect with one another–those choices are defiant, radical, revolutionary.
This year's exhibition celebrates the beauty of interdependence, the power of community, and the full spectrum of joy within disability culture. Disabled artists across the midwest showcase artwork that reflects the richness of disabled lives — not as isolated stories of struggle or inspiration, but as nuanced and deeply connected, complex, and joyful experiences.

Partly Cloudy , with a high of 46 and low of 29 degrees. Sunny for the morning, overcast in the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
