Our Programs
AIM High Day Program
The AIM High Day Program is a unique day program for adults with disabilities that provide participants with an opportunity to discover and explore their inner artist, and realizes the self-expression and enjoyment the creative arts can bring to their lives.
Living Light Dance Company
The Living Light performers represent a variety of special needs including autism, Down Syndrome and physical challenges, yet none of these challenges inhibits the joy and creativity of the dancers. Each performer finds dance a valuable means of self-expression.
We’re offering several virtual class options.
Arts in Motion Studio is here to meet the needs of any individual wanting to participate in and enjoy the arts. We offer classes in all areas of the creative arts. Our staff members have extensive experience and are ready to discover with you your unique talents. If you do not see a class offered at a time that meets your schedule, please call. We often shift classes to meet the interests and availability of our students.
