Grace and Bonnie Reber

My name is Bonnie and my daughter Grace is a young adult with Down syndrome. Our dream for her is that she gets to participate in life, that she is given the same opportunity to live a life of dignity as anyone else might. We really believe and have been shown repeatedly that you only grow as big as your fish bowl…

Starting GracePlace Art, Grace's online art business, is a perfect example of this. We hope that Grace has the opportunity to live on her own with support and a community of her peers; to show up as an empowered and confident adult. And while we don't know exactly what that will look like, we can guarantee that her life will blossom more beautifully than we could have imagined. She just needs a bigger fish bowl!
