Community Access

At the Orlando Museum of Art (OMA), we believe art has the power to inspire and connect everyone. Our Community Access Programs create welcoming spaces for individuals with disabilities, health challenges, and diverse backgrounds to explore, create, and share the joy of art and self-expression.

Art on the Go!

For over 25 years, this program has brought enriching art experiences to senior adults unable to visit the museum. Art on the Go encourages reminiscing and connections with lifetime experiences through engaging discussions using art reproductions and hands-on objects.

Art with Purpose@OMA

In collaboration with Zebra Youth, this program uses art as a tool for self-expression and growth among LGBTQ+ youth. Journaling, art-making, and gallery explorations foster confidence and a sense of belonging.
