Thank you
to our friends who came to our first benefit show, featuring Atlas Gray! We were blessed with a beautiful evening and opportunity to share our organization’s mission, while treating everyone to an incredible night of music. One favorite memory was having CT Inclusive Arts student, Megan Morrison interpret Just Give Me Time in ASL during the performance! We can’t wait for Megan and other students to join our classes in a couple short months! 


Did you know that all CT Inclusive Arts classes will come together in our production of BELIEVE on Central Connecticut State University’s beautiful campus at the Welte Auditorium? This 1,800 seat theatre will offer our students an experience of a lifetime, performing alongside featured guest artists in a space that is sure to offer an exceptional audience experience as well.
