you may want to contact Very Special Arts - an educational affiliate of

creative arts for individuals with disabilities.  Associated Galleries
are located in most states and in 55 countries abroad.  The National
Very Special Arts Gallery is located in Washington DC and maintains a
continuous and varied exhibition schedule.  Their exhibitions are often
geared towards education through the arts.
