Sorry for the NVC, but need help. I've a friend - male, 56, dyslexic, slow learner handicap, two heart attacks, but a fabulous jeweler and sculptor. Can't get work. Nobody wants to hire a 56 year old who can't read. I'm trying to help somehow. Any suggestions as to organizations I can contact, or art rep types that might be interested in representing him to galleries, etc. would be much appreciated. He went to the state re-hab office where they tested him, put him through all the paces, then said to him , "Yep, you're dyslexic, and have handicaps,. but we can't help ... your not retarded as much as necessary to fit our profiles.!" What a crock! Anyway, any help, suggestions, etc. at all would be appreciated. Thanks, John Rodgers 88 GL Driver
