UPM Receives Art with a Purpose

This beautiful piece of art glass, created by an artist from the InsideOut Studio, was presented to United Performance Metals as part of their recognition for receiving the LIVE UNITED award from the Butler County United Way.

The InsideOut Studio

InsideOut Studio provides a supportive studio environment for artists with development disabilities.  There are 30-40 artists that work in the studio.  Through InsideOut, artists with disabilities can produce, market, and receive an income for their art while gaining confidence in their abilities.   Each artist receives 50% of all their artwork sold, with the remaining 50% going back into the studio budget to cover operational expenses.

InsideOut Studio and Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities support individuals to successfully live, work and learn in the community; providing meaningful opportunities which support a person’s ability to live a purposeful life.  United Performance Metals was privileged to receive this attractive gift from such an honorable organization.
