Text Box: Elkwood Arts

Elkwood Arts is a program of Dickinson Mental Health Center. They are a sheltered vocational workshop that manufactures products out of mostly donated Pennsylvania hardwoods. Their main function as a program is to provide paid employment for folks with Developmental Disabilities as well as trying to teach and instill proper and ethical work practices. As they continue to grow, they are working on trying to advance skill levels. They are in need of small electric/battery operated hand tools such as hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers, etc. Also, finishing items (paints, varnishes, brushes). These items will be used by the consumers to increase the variety of jobs they can work on and ultimately get paid for. If you have any of these items that you can donate to them or know anyone who does please contact Missy Shirey at Elwood Arts at (814)776-2174 or email at missy.shirey@dmhc.org. You can also view their program at www.elkwoodarts.com. Elwood Arts is located in 
Ridgway, PA.
