Community Arts Phoenixville

Support Community Arts Phoenixville by making a $5 gift to our parent organization, Camphill Soltane!

It is impossible to know the courage of a man who had slung at him the worst labels and insults imaginable, who suffered abuse and neglect, and who belonged to... a group totally discounted by society, Nancy Thaler, the former deputy secretary of the Pennsylvania Office of Developmental Programs, wrote in an open letter after his death, but who nevertheless stood up in public to speak for himself and his people. Roland gave voice to the people. Roland made us listen. Roland changed how we think about disabilities. Take a moment to read this wonderful feature on Roland Johnson, hero of the Disability Rights movement and namesake of Soltane's Roland Johnson building. #BlackHistoryMonth #BHM2021

a wonderful story of inclusive art making

We are thankful for you! Because of everyone's generous support, we are delighted to share that we surpassed our $10,000 #GivingTuesday goal! A true community... is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social network. It's about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community and everyone plays a crucial role. This is why Camphill Soltane's mission of creating and strengthening inclusive communities by advocating alongside people with disabilities is so vitally important. Thanks again for making #GivingTuesday a smashing success!
