The Hardaway Gallery has some new items and returning favorites in this new display: `Art + Disability`! ✨
Artists with disabilities have always been part of American art, but their stories haven’t always been fully told. This installation draws from COMU’s permanent collection to highlight some of the many contributions disabled artists have made, while offering a broader picture of their lives and work.

We invite you to spend time with these works and discover the complexity, and innovation they bring to COMU!
On view now at The Columbus Museum.
