A Display of Talent and SelfExpression at Shalva’s Art Exhibition

The After School Activity Center's annual art exhibition opened to family members, staff and the broader community in July, culminating an incredible year of Shalva’s art therapy program and celebrating our children's talent.

Donors Helen Steyer and Tommy Steyer sponsored the program and the exhibit at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when it proved to be one of the most beneficial and consistent rehabilitative outlets for our Shalva children. The long-awaited art exhibition was especially appreciated this year after an unexpected two-year suspension of public and programwide gatherings. Over one hundred art pieces were presented by Shalva’s artists themselves. Displayed according to art medium and theme, the pieces illustrated our children’s expressions of their heroes, favorite landscapes, and themselves.
