Autoimmune Association Recognized as a Finalist in PR Daily’s Nonprofit Communications Awards

The Autoimmune Association has been recognized as a finalist in the Visual Storytelling category of PR Daily’s Nonprofit Communications Awards for our
Autoimmune Expressions virtual art gallery.

Autoimmune Association Autoimmune ExpressionsFor many living with chronic illness, art is a healthy form of self-expression and self-care. Art can help us cope, connect to others, and break through self-perceived limitations. It can be difficult for others to understand our experiences, and through art we can bring our feelings to life. The Autoimmune Expressions gallery showcases these experiences through creative expressions from autoimmune warriors.

Autoimmune Expressions features over 100 original works of art, including paintings, drawings, poetry, wood, metal, and textile pieces, music, rocks, clay, and other natural pieces, photography, and more. Each unique piece visually depicts the realities of living with an autoimmune condition.

This video offers an overview of Autoimmune Expressions, featuring select pieces showcased at a special reception in Washington, DC earlier this year. Watch and experience the powerful impact of these extraordinary artworks as they vividly bring patients’ stories to life. View: https://youtu.be/bnb6eIajjsE
