Community Events

Abilities in Art

Abilities in Art combines art and awareness at the Riverside Arts Market. The project was created to help raise awareness of persons with disabilities living in the community. Both wheelchair users and able-bodied individuals paint by rolling across blank canvases using assistive devices. No skill level is required and all are welcome to join!

Spirit of the ADA

We Vote Rally

The We Vote Rally is held before critical elections to demonstrate the voting voice of the disability community. CIL and other nonprofit partners join to educate the community on voting rights, accessible voting, machines, and candidates’ disability platforms.

Wheelchair Costumes

This annual partnership between CIL and RS&H creates unique costumes for kids who use wheelchairs. Each costume is chosen by a child and built by a talented team of designers, architects, and engineers.
