“I want to be an inspiration to others, because so Dear Community Friends, Look at what your past support has helped to do. Spring, an inspiration to many, is a 33 year old Art Attack students who has a “Heart for Art!” Diagnosed with spinal bifida (a birth defect in which the backbone and spinal canal do not close before birth), Spring was not expected to walk, talk, or go to school. However, through persistence and support, Spring has done all these things, plus more, including taking classes! Because of the Art Attack, Spring owes much of her happiness to the classes offered at the Opportunity House in Sycamore. Spring says that art is a creative therapeutic outlet which allows her to express her feelings. For that, she is very grateful, especially to Susan Edwards, who teaches the classes: We thank you so much for your past support and invite you during our 2011 Annual “Heart for Art! Campaign, to continue to be an inspiration for art students by sponsoring one or more of the following classes offered through the Art Attack:
