Unruly Arts (Toledo, Ohio) was established in 2016 and currently maintains their studio in the Artist Village at Toledo Botanical Garden (Ohio). As a process-based studio for artists with disabilities, Unruly Arts creates an inclusive and nurturing environment that supports the artistic visions of its creatives, while highlighting that art is an innate expression in which everyone can participate. The studio provides artist opportunities through discovery of new techniques and creating, exhibiting and selling art with an emphasis on artistic freedom.

Open to the public, Unruly Arts’ location in Toledo Botanical Garden welcomes visitors to enjoy works created by the studio’s artists, as well as regularly welcomes community collaboration with studio artists on interactive, bi-monthly exhibits April through September. Additionally, Unruly Arts has exhibited in local community installations, including a mixed media artwork displayed in the Aquarium at the Toledo Zoo (Ohio) in 2018.
