About Visual Aid:
Visual Aid is a non-profit organization whose mission is to encourage artists with life-threatening illnesses to continue their creative work. These artists confront the uncertainty of illness and side effects of medication, while battling prejudice and isolation. The organization provides free art supplies, exhibition opportunities and community, while promoting dialogue around illness and art.
