“Truly Artistic.. Proudly Autistic”. The tag line used by ASP to promote and emphasize the artistic talents of persons with autism. The tag line also serves as the title of several painting exhibits of ASP artists with autism like Andrei Macapagal, Vico Cham, Kenrick Cheng and others.
The painting contest has been a major activity of ASP’s National Autism Consciousness Week celebration for the past four years. The activity serves as a venue to identify and develop children’s with autism (CWA) artistic potentials.
Winning entries are selected, framed and exhibited during the World Autism Awareness Day and other celebrations of ASP.
