149 Pieces - Art & music for Autism Awareness

About Me


149 Pieces hopes to bring together ART and MUSIC to benefit Autism Awareness and raise money for research.
If you are an ARTIST , MUSICIAN , PHOTOGRAPHER , or are in a BAND and interested in participating, you may send us a message on our MySpace page or email [email protected]
WHAT IS AUTISM?
Autism is a developmental disorder that is usually diagnosed within the first few years of life - There is no cure, it is lifelong. Some of the characteristics may include delayed/impaired development, the inability to show emotion, the inability to connect words to their meaning, a dislike to physical touch and inconsistency.
WHAT CAN WE DO?
Spread the word about Autism Spectrum Disorders and spread the word about 149 Pieces. We want to raise awareness and raise research funding through the arts. We need to inform others about the benefits of earlier detection and starting therapies earlier on in life. We need to explore the possibilities for a cause (this is a bit of a controversy - environmental, genetic, etc). We need to let people know why there is a reason for 149 Pieces - why it's important to raise awareness.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
Further information, links and facts can be found on our website - www.149pieces.com.
