We are pleased to announce we are in the process of planning our free Christmas art and culture program and Artist of the Year awards for autistic and special needs students. Our goodwill ambassador Kevin McNally, Hollywood actor will be offering a free voice acting class on zoom as a reward for students completing the Christmas art program with Focus comics. In previous years we have had celebrities including Kevin McNally; Tony Todd (our former goodwill ambassador) and actors from Star Wars and other notable movies and animation. We will be announcing more celebrity guests and famous comic artist who will be joining our free art programming this year. Graduates will all receive a signed autograph of Kevin on a Pirates of the Caribbean photo for successfully completing the program.

We will be adding more celebrity talent to this program closer to Christmas. Graduates will receive gifts including original comic sketches and more!

3 lucky students will be presented with a prestigious Artist of the Year Trophy at the Christmas graduation event. The kids will meet heroes at graduation.
