FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Strokes of Genius, Inc is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the arts in our communities.

Strokes of Genius® Inc is about ABILITIES! We support the artistic talents of individuals on the autism spectrum (ASD). Our primary goal is to promote inclusion, independence, leisure and employment opportunities through exposure of the artworks. We empower artists by promoting their artistic abilities in contrast to the disabilities.  SOG seeks to empower the individual, Train the Talent (TTT℠) and showcase and sell the artists’ works “by the artist” and “for the artist”.  SOG further expands opportunities for individuals with autism who may be impaired socially, verbally, or behaviorally; by providing a vehicle for them to enjoy doing what they love and enabling opportunities to generate income from their  creativity. 

 If you are an artist on the autism spectrum and would  like to commercialize your art,   Strokes of Genius, Inc  (SOG) assists in promoting your artwork.

In order to promote and present your artwork to mainstream galleries, Strokes of Genius, Inc  will create an individualized artist portfolio. The artist portfolio includes sample  images of your art and a brief bio. When the portfolio is presented to galleries, no mention is made of any autism diagnosis, as we  DO NOT promote any artist as "an artist on the autism spectrum". You are an artist in your own right.

Artwork is mailed or delivered to Strokes of Genius, Inc at the artists expense.  Any artwork received to Strokes of Genius®, Inc and sold,  either at an exhibition or through the SOG website will be shipped to the buyer by SOG, Inc via FedEx or UPS.  SOG pays for shipping of any artwork that is returned to the artist.  All shipments will have proof of delivery.
