The Felix Awards is an annual event honoring artists, writers, thinkers, dancers, actors, and advocates who have helped move the public perception of disability away from fear, loathing, or mindless admiration, and toward a more nuanced grasp of the multiplicity of being and the diversity of experience.

Join us for an evening of drinks, hors d'oeuvres, entertainment, and conversation in support of Extreme Kids & Crew's critical work providing inclusive spaces for disabled youth and their families.
