About the exhibition:
On The World With The World, on view Feb 1 - 28 in the Institute for the Humanities Osterman Common Room, is an exhibition of 40 artworks by over 24 artists from the Progressive Art Studio Collective (PASC) program. PASC is the first progressive art studio and exhibition program in Detroit and Wayne County dedicated to supporting artists with developmental disabilities and mental health differences to advance artistic practices and build individual careers in the art and design fields.

This exhibition introduces the PASC program, and the wide range of styles and ways of working that drive this community of artists, to the Ann Arbor community. The exhibition is hung salon style, referencing the communal character of the Osterman Common Room as a social gathering space. It intends to bring engaged people together for conversation on art, disabilities, and questions of access in the art world.

PASC embraces the philosophy that creating an artwork is an expressive and communal act whereby an individual communicates their unique perspective on the world with the world.
