It's February At Absolute Gallery
Greetings! 
Well it is February, so it must be Absolute Gallery's annual Autism:  Communication through Art show.  This is my favorite show of the year.  All the artists have a form of Autism and are incredibly talented.  
First Sunday Gallery Walk will open the Autism:  Communication through Art show on Sunday, February 6, 2011 from 1-5 pm.  I hope you will stop in to the gallery to see these talented young men.

Vapur Anti-Bottle

Cyan Vapur bottle

The VapurŪ Anti-Bottle™ is a foldable, reusable water bottle designed for convenient on-the-go use. Unlike traditional rigid bottles, the Anti-Bottle is flexible. It stands upright when full and can be rolled, folded or flattened when empty - easily fitting into pockets, purses or packs.


Safe and durable, the Vapur Anti-Bottle is made in the United States and designed to withstand everyday use and regular cleaning. It also comes with a carabiner, allowing you to attach your Anti-Bottle and take it anywhere. The writable area on the back of the bottle also allows it to be personalized.

Autism:  Communication Through Art
Savika
The more opportunities we have for the talents of people with autism to be enjoyed, the better. This show will remind us that autism conditions do not just entail disability but are often accompanied by excellent attention to detail and a fresh way of looking at the environment. It is wonderful that artists with autism benefit directly and can make their contribution to our world by allowing us into their world.
