About The Art Faculty

The Art Faculty is a social enterprise started by local charity Autism Resource Centre (Singapore). We are one of the Centre’s numerous core services such as early childhood intervention, education & life-skills learning, employment coaching and independent living.

The Art Faculty celebrates the abilities of people on the autism spectrum. We promote and showcase their special talents through their artworks and art embellished onto quality, functional products. For every sale of artwork and product, our differently abled artists earn royalties – thus learning the value of work and financial independence through this dignified source of income.

About Our Artists

The Art Faculty currently serves and represents talented artists from Pathlight School’s award-winning Artist Development Programme (ADP). The School is part of the same charity Autism Resource Centre (Singapore).

Launched in April 2011, ADP is a signature programme for students and alumni from Pathlight School. ADP uncovers artistic talents in students and develop them to their full potential. Practicing artists and art coaches are engaged to hone our student artists with art skills and teach them good work habits, too. Students are exposed to numerous art media and genres, but each of them arrives at their own unique style and subject focus. Here, their autism traits are turned into strengths. Some are able to execute highly detailed architectural renderings, while others are experts in a specific subjects, such as animals or nature.
