The Center for Individuals with Physical Challenges is showing off artwork created by artists with physical disabilities at its annual Holiday Market.

The 16 artists were able to showcase and sell pieces they've been working on all year like stained glass art, paintings, and sculptures.

The center's horticulture class also had plenty of houseplants for shoppers to choose from.

The center says events like this help enhance their clients' quality of life.

"Art is one of the things that really helps people with their fine motor skills and their cognitive focusing and sequencing," said director of development Beth Bridgewater.

The artists get 80 percent of each sale with 20 percent going back to the center to cover supplies.

The event happens every year on the first Saturday in December.
