Summertime Gallery

Summertime Gallery hosts 3-5 inclusive exhibitions a year. Co-curated by our directors and the participating artist, these exhibitions showcase and celebrate neurodiverse artists from around the world. For each show, Summertime transforms its physical space to become the embodiment of each artist's interior world, so viewers don't just appreciate the artworks, they get to know the artist. Summertime's residency program supports 3 residencies annually and is open to all artists and collectives looking to immerse themselves in 3-4 months of artmaking and emphasizes opportunities for neurodiverse artists. Summertime provides residents studio space, supplies, a stipend, creative mentorship, and a culminating exhibition, performance, or public-facing presentation. Summertime's studio offers artists with and without idd the opportunity to create in community through a multitude of program offerings including workshops, tours, and open studio hours. Summertime's studio is intentionally non-hierarchical; staff act as facilitators instead of teachers, shifting the longstanding power dynamic in disabled communities.
