Coming Soon: Beyond Barriers Art Show

In recognition of December 3 as International Day of Persons with Disabilities, The Library and the Town of Ajax is proud to host the Beyond Barriers Art Show celebrating creativity, resilience, and diverse perspectives. We invite Ajax artists of all ages who identify as persons with disabilities to submit their artwork on the theme of “No Limits” for display in this special exhibition.

All types of art media, including pen, pencil, paint, crayon, collage, pastels, markers, or any combination of these, are welcome as we want to showcase your voice and vision. This is a platform to inspire, connect, and amplify the talents of our community.

Drop-off days for submissions:

Tuesday, November 11, 4–8:30 p.m., or Saturday, November 15, 9:30 a.m.–1:30 p.m. at Main Branch.

Artwork will not be accepted outside of drop-off days or at other branches. Artists must be an Ajax resident and/or participant, member, or volunteer with a disability supporting organization serving the Town of Ajax. To enter, download an entry form (or pick one up at any branch) and return the completed form with your entry on one of the drop-off days.
