We are thrilled to announce that The Arc of San Diego has been awarded a $10,000 grant from the incredible Foundation for Developmental Disabilities (FDD)! This generous support will power our vibrant Art for All program, a creative initiative that’s changing lives through the power of artistic expression.

As a proud FDD grantee, we’re honored to stand alongside an organization that champions innovation and inclusion, investing in programs that uplift individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities across San Diego. Their commitment is helping us build a more inclusive, expressive, and connected community.

Led by the talented local artist Bryttney-Mischele, Art for All inspires participants to explore their creativity, develop fine motor and communication skills, and connect with the world around them. Through engaging art classes, our clients visit new places, discover local organizations, and form meaningful connections — all while expressing themselves through a variety of artistic mediums.

Thanks to FDD, we’re not just making art. We are making an impact!
