SPRINGFIELD -- RMD Gallery & Framing Studio,
United Cerebral Palsy Land of Lincoln, and several community
partners have joined forces to spotlight the artistic abilities of
children and adults with disabilities as part of the Art Stars: Life
Without Limits program. Beginning Monday, artwork created by
children and adults with disabilities will be on display at RMD
Gallery & Framing Studio, 210 S. Sixth St. in Springfield.

 The community is encouraged to support these local artists by
viewing the art exhibit at RMD Gallery and by helping select a
"people's choice" award winner, celebrating life without limits.
On Thursday, there will be an Art Walk in downtown Springfield
showcasing the talents of these and other artists throughout the
community. Downtown businesses and galleries will be spotlighting
the arts in Springfield and will be open through 8:30 that evening.
In conjunction with the Capitol City Celebration, the public is
invited to help celebrate independence by creating chalk murals on
the downtown sidewalks with the assistance of local artists during
the Art Walk. There will also be live music and art demonstrations
in the downtown area.
