Discover the Power of Art
At ARTS and REC, LLC, we believe that art is a powerful tool for personal growth, self-expression, and overall well-being. Our mission is to provide a nurturing and inclusive environment where individuals with special needs can explore their creativity, develop new skills, and build lasting friendships.
Our Story
Our journey began in a humble barn, where founder Julie Quill recognized a profound need for engaging and fun programs for individuals with special needs. As an artist herself, Julie understands the transformative power of art. She believes that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can unleash their inner artist with the right guidance and encouragement.
As a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Therapist, Julie combines her artistic passion with therapeutic techniques to create a unique and enriching experience for our participants. Our programs are designed to promote leisure skills, social interaction, and emotional well-being.
