Clovernook Center Receives $500K Grant to Publish Disability Arts Anthology

Clovernook Center, in collaboration with the Proclaiming Disability Arts (PDA) collective, has been awarded a $500,000 grant from the Mellon Foundation. This funding will support the production of 'Disability Arts,' a multiformat anthology showcasing writings, illustrations, paintings, and conversations from disabled artists across diverse backgrounds. The anthology aims to be accessible to readers of all physical and cognitive abilities, with plans for multiple print volumes and an innovative online platform.
