The Art AJAR Program was approached by Kate Schaffer on the Hot Springs Area Cultural Alliance and asked if we would like to host Mr. Bramblitt’s workshop “the Bramblitt Workshop” which is part of the May Art in the Park event in Hot Springs. Our Adult Clients in our Art AJAR workshop welcomed Mr. Bramblitt with open arms and with much enthusiasm and the workshop went off without a hitch. Our clients were blown away to learn that Mr. Bramblitt was blind and still able to create amazing pieces of art using other senses rather than sight. A big part of what we do at First Step is to help our clients find creative ways to be as independent as possible, which is what Mr. Bramblitt brilliantly did not only for our client during our workshop, but for himself throughout his life. Mr. Bramblitt was presented with an original art piece created by one of our adult clients in Art AJAR Program as a thank you for his time and the gifts he shared with our clients. First Step looks forward to following Mr. Bramblitt’s amazing career, and hopes to expand our relationship with the Hot Springs Area Cultural Alliance.
