Performances: The Special Needs Color Guard of America (formerly known as the Florida Special Needs Color Guard) has performed its artistic program in many venues. Whenever this very special color guard performs, there is "not a dry eye in the house." The artistry, talent, and dedication of the Special Needs Color Guard of America truly puts life in perspective. For the past eight years, their message has echoed throughout the United States and the world, making a positive difference in how society views individuals with developmental disabilities.

The Special Needs Color Guard of America and its very talented participants are giving true hope to families of individuals who are newly diagnosed with developmental disabilities such as Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Attention Deficit Disorder, and Down Syndrome -- just to name a few. These families are realizing that their very special children can grow into their teen years and adulthood being productive and respected members of our society.

The Florida Special Arts Center has a weekly schedule of Choir practice, Arts and Crafts, Color Guard practice and more. Please contact Ellen Kleinert for an updated schedule of events. Don't forget we are always in need of volunteers for our concession stand events at the Bank Atlantic Center.
