Changing the story about what people with disabilities can do.
SHOWAbility is a 501(c)(3) human services nonprofit organization. We use music and the arts as our platform to affect positive change to the narrative of the abilities of people with disabilities (PwD). All are seen as able, not unable, broken, or sick.
SHOWAbility was founded in 2009 by Myrna Clayton, an international jazz singer and U.S. Cultural Ambassador.
