Steve Selpal: Spirituality and Special Needs

›

Description

I became aware today that at Steve’s memorial on August 19, 2017 his family played a video he created on spirituality and special needs. The Art of Autism wanted to share this important video. Steve was a great friend of the Art of Autism.

Narrating the video is Steve’s daughter Lizzy Knapp and Steve.

Below is a video of Steve’s peace labyrinth he created.

Steve is one of my best friends who I never met him in person. I’m honored to have been his friend. The Art of Autism is dedicating our 2017 Art and Poetry for Peace Initiative to Steve Selpal, who embodies the project.

Keri Bowers and myself (Debra Muzikar) wrote a memorial to Steve that was displayed at his memorial. We are honored that we were included. We think the day of this great solar eclipse is a day to share Steve’s video on spirituality.
