Artist, Wit & Whim team up to support Spectrum

The Island Now

Pamela Hanna, an accomplished glass artist and potter is teaming up with local gift shop, Wit-n-Whim, to support Spectrum Designs and the Nicholas Center.

One-of-a-kind treasures await you at the local Port Washington “ life and style shop with a twist,” where all through November a percentage of proceeds will support the good work of these two organizations. Since 2011, the Port Washington-based Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs Foundation have developed innovative programs offering vocational training and employment opportunities to individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder and related conditions.

In 2015, two additional social enterprises were launched: Spectrum Bakes and Spectrum Suds. Together with the Nicholas Center, these 100 percent not for profit organizations offer an employment and support model where education and life skills work hand in hand with employment training and opportunities.
