After two months we finally got an instructor only to find out they cannot due the schedule we originally planned 2 days before the lesson. Still no idea where to pay, where to show up, or anything to give us some information. None of the staff is helpful, they cannot communicate well, and are full of excuses. If you are looking for Music lessons for your child, go somewhere with better communication.

Everything was pretty easy from parking to setting up my table inside the Campus Center. The signage was great, especially since my gps was acting up and I was just going off my 10-year old memory of where stuff is. I had a lot of great interaction with students and I'll definitely be back for upcoming recruitment fairs. It looks like there's been a refresh to campus (at least the campus center) since I was a student a long time ago, but it looks nice. I visited the coffee shop inside the campus center and got a snack from the little convenience store on my way out. Everything was very convenient. From what I could tell, you do most of your ordering at the coffee shop/restaurants at a kiosk and then pick it up when it's ready. That's definitely different but I can get on board with that model of service.

The school was also excited for me to continue my education journey by being attentive initially. Two enrollment issues were very difficult to resolve as ACE does not provide proper support. I understand the school is more cost-effective by decreasing overhead with staff, but when your "advisor" never reaches out or provides a response, one of two things is happening: They don't care, or they are overworked and can't manage the workload. Additionally, the studies did not meet the professional requirements that one would consider necessary for the course. For example, I was taking an organizational behavior course, and the entire course was based on the triple bottom line: what the organization is doing for the community and the environment. These are fundamental aspects of any organization but are not the entirety of its behavior. The course had little added value for my professional journey. The course load is manageable, but if someone takes more than one course per semester, which they recommend, it's not manageable. If you are working, forget about it. I was surprised that ACE doesn't follow the norm of two courses that are done one at a time per semester. Someone told me long ago that you get what you pay for. Lesson learned: a costly one at that. If you are thinking of going to ACE, I would encourage you to weigh your options and look at other schools that offer better program structures.

As someone with a disability who is also a creative, there's no question I resonate with ArtMix's…read moremission to transform the lives of people with and without disabilities through the creation of art. ArtMix is an Indianapolis-based non-profit organization that has been in existence since I was a kid in school, though it began life as Very Special Arts. They have four core programs, a variety of special projects, and quite a few opportunities to support them ranging from visiting their art gallery to joining them for First Fridays and others. As they note on their website, in the early days of public education for those with disabilities it was uncommon for us to be integrated into regular classrooms. An organization like this was used to fill in that gap. While I was often discouraged from creativity, this was an organization that encouraged it. The fact that I'm now a published writer, film critic, producer, and occasional actor is proof positive of how positive their influence can be. It should be noted that shopping in their gallery is by appointment only. Like a lot of non-profits, they have a small staff. The core programs for ArtMix include urban artisans, entrepreneur artisans, community classes, and artists-in-residence. In terms of accessibility, despite being in a challenging building they do well with ramps at the back entrance (and free parking in the back lot). The building itself is locked - there's a call box that you'll use (again, they request appointments). First Friday events are cool, the gallery is wonderful (and does support artists with disabilities. Yay.). I'm very pleased with this organization. It's only gotten better over the years. While I'm no longer that student sitting in a classroom, ArtMix reaches out even more these days and is truly a community organization. If you've never checked them out, I definitely recommend it.
