Community Access to the Arts' photostream  

Community Access to the Arts nurtures and celebrates the creativity of people with disabilities through shared experiences in the visual and performing arts.

Our programs take place in healthcare, therapeutic, eldercare, educational, community and cultural settings. We serve 600 individuals with developmental, physical, emotional and/or mental disabilities representing 26 different human service and educational organizations, as well as individuals living at home.

The majority of our participants reside in Berkshire County, Massachusetts.

“I think CATA is very important. It helps people like me who have small disabilities to get out and show the world they can really do something. It just makes me feel important!” -Ellen Gerlich, CATA Participant
