Don't miss out on the original art piece created by our Resident Artist, Dan S while at MSS. His print is the inspiration for the 2020 gala design.

Dan moved into one of our homes in 2017 and he has been thriving ever since because of the personalized care he receives for his needs, passions and dreams. With the support of MSS staff who nurture his love of art, Dan was able to have his first gallery show in March of 2018. Every piece of work was sold, it was huge success! He is able to create his masterpieces with the use of assistive technology, an opportunity that is only made possible by donations from our generous supporters.
