Now is the time for advocacy. Art Spark Texas has been doing the work, creating a safe, welcoming space for artists with disabilities. In Waiting for the Bus, playwright James Burnside led a creative collaboration with other artists at Art Spark. Their goal? Create bridges between how people want to help communities and how that help can fall short. The cast features both disabled and non-disabled actors as it shares the story of individuals in an institutional facility. Yes, there are challenges, but it’s more about the work put into not just surviving, but thriving in everyday life. Watch a story of resilience while supporting an organization dedicated to an oft-misunderstood population. – Cat McCarrey
