Nonprofit Seeks Local Artists with Medical Conditions and Serving as Caregivers

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saratoga-based nonprofit Beyond My Battle, seeks artists living with or caring for someone living with a rare disease, illness, or disability, and offers an opportunity to share their work at the upcoming “Art with Heart & Hope” exhibit.

The annual event showcases the ways art can help manage the many stressors of living as a patient or caregiver.

The deadline to submit artwork is July 1. All art must be able to be displayed on a wall or easel. Artists must have lived with, or cared for someone living with, a physical illness, disease, or disability; be at least 18 years old; and live in the Capital Region. Artists should submit their information and work at beyondmybattle.org/art-show-2022 by July 1. Artists have the option to price their artwork and donate a portion of the sale to Beyond My Battle or not price their artwork at all. 

This year’s show will take place on Sept. 8 at Universal Preservation Hal. Tickets will be available to purchase starting July 15.
