feller and others.

ARTCURIAN organizers introduced the healing power of art into the various therapeutic settings at the Addiction Research and Treatment Corporation and its affiliate, Urban Resource Institute (ARTC-URI). Artists were offered canvas, materials and studio space and are donating a significant percentage of sales to enhance the institution's services. Several artists are also conducting volunteer workshops for the developmentally disabled.

ARTC-URI are two of New York City's largest not-for-profit human service providers, operating 14 facilities. ARTC delivers medical and support services to thousands battling addiction and its related diseases, including HIV/AIDS and mental illness. URI operates a city-wide transportation network for the disabled, job training, placement services and group homes for the developmentally disabled, and the city's second-largest emergency residence for families endangered by domestic violence. Beny J. Primm, M.D., ARTC executive director and president of URI, is a longtime collector who made possible this artful collaboration.

Opening weekend exhibition hours are: Fri, 11-5, Sat and Sun 3-6. Audiences will enjoy artist talks at 4 p.m. each Sunday in February. First up is "New Beginnings," a talk with artists new to mural-painting and discussion of great muralists of color in history. The remaining Black History Month schedule is: Thurs-Fri 11-5 and Sun 3-6. Visitors and school groups are welcome by appointment. For info and to RSVP for the opening reception, call 718-260-2909 or visit www.artcurian.org. Arthur Bennett Hall is located at 22 Chapel Street near Jay St.
