CINCINNATI - In recognition of National Disability Employment Month, Drake Center is holding an art celebration featuring the work of local artists with disabilities and Drake Center residents Oct. 3, from 6-9 p.m. in the West Pavilion lobby at Drake, 151 W. Galbraith Road, in Hartwell.

Drake is partnering with Art Beyond Boundaries who will be providing paintings and sculptures created by artists with a range of disabilities. The community is invited to come to Drake and enjoy music and refreshments while viewing the art. The art will be available for purchase.
