The number of people who are born or develops intellectual disabilities has increased considerably lately, affecting about 3% of the world's population. This disability is manifested by impairment of cognitive, communication, motor and social skills, self-care and personal safety. There are also learning and understanding difficulties as a result of the insufficient development of intelligence. However, most of the needs of people with this disability do not differ from those of normal people, and they also need security, socialization, education, and very important professional integration.

               How Art Helps People With Disabilities  The arts are more than a fun, superficial way to keep kids occupied. Art activities can help children with learning disabilities begin to overcome the challenges they face in learning in many different ways. Of course, having a learning disability does not necessarily mean that a person has an exceptional artistic talent.
