On view through July 24 at Open Studio is a mesmerizing exhibition featuring hundreds of artworks by participants in progressive studios across the United States. The gallery’s walls are covered from floor to ceiling, while bins overflow with a wildly diverse range of works, all created by artists living with a variety of disabilities. Priced from under $100 to $1,000, the artwork s are available on a “cash-and-carry” basis.
