Sheep Husbandry
Through the efforts of Revive the Roots, Artists Exchange, and awarded grant funding, we are able to offer a Sheep-therapy program. This program involves individuals from local group homes in the Smithfield area, who come to Mowry Commons daily, to care for and learn about sheep. The wool which is sheared from the sheep twice a year is used for arts programming in part with the Artists Exchange Arts Access
Artists’ Exchange offers immersion opportunities for the exploration of the arts through classes, summer camps, school programs, birthday parties and events in art, theater, music and ceramics. The in-house Black Theatre, an integrated theater company composed of actors with and without disabilities, produces four plays each year which aim to engage, inspire, entertain and challenge audiences. Artists’ Exchange hosts a variety of community events such as the Fall Out of Summer Arts Festival and Gingerbread House Decorating Contest, all geared to bring people together in a shared celebration of creativity and self-expression.
