A Virtual Exhibition Celebrating World Animal Day

​​​​

In celebration of World Animal Day on October 4, this exhibition is an expression of the profound connection many neurodiverse artists share with animals and nature. Featuring 133 works from 31 artists across Korea and the United States, the exhibition is a cornucopia of creativity showcasing the vibrant expressions and unique strengths of neurodiverse art. Shared globally, we hope this exhibition contributes to the celebration of neurodiversity in art and fosters greater recognition of the talents of neurodiverse artists worldwide.

 

World Animal Day, established in 1925, is a global initiative aimed at raising awareness about animal welfare and promoting the protection of all species. It celebrates the role animals play in our world, advocates for better standards in animal care and conservation, and encourages all of us to take action in support of animal rights and well-being.
