MORC is pleased to announce Southeast Michigan: Picture It, a photography exhibition to take place on Friday, September 17th from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Detroit Artists Market (DAM) at 4719 Woodward Avenue in Detroit. 
In partnership with DAM, the exhibition will feature the work of photographers with disabilities who have been taking photography classes through the MORC Therapeutic Recreation Department and then utilizing their skills taking photographs of various cultural and historic venues throughout Southeast Michigan. The culminating exhibition showcasing this work will be one of the first exhibitions the DAM has held featuring artists with disabilities.
Funding for this project was made possible by a grant from the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs. For more information, call 586-263-8905.

“I'm very pleased with the program and like what I'm doing! I like to go out and get dirty clothes from the hair cut places and wash and fold the laundry. I used to twiddle my thumbs at the other program — now I make money. If you ever want to come over and take my picture, that would be great.”
Raymond Brunson
“You give me lots of ideas. When I have a problem, you get right back to me with answers. Even if you don't know, you find out. It's been great!”
Lucy Pfaff
