A note about Participation & Registration

Given the nature of the communities we provide services for, we require all new participants, students, and artists to meet with a team member and our executive director prior to enrollment & participation at Arts in Motion Studio. We need to learn about your loved one so that we can make sure that what we provide works with their life. We would be honored if our programs and resources would be able to work with everyone, but as you know, that is not realistic or applicable. If this is your first time connecting with Arts in Motion Studio, please connect with us to schedule an interview.

You will not be allowed to participate or register until after our interview process has been completed.
