Wheelchair Painting
Acrylic paints
Large sheets of paper
Spread a large sheet of paper or sheet on the floor. Pour some paint onto the paper then have the participants using wheelchairs run their wheelchairs all over the paper. Hang the painting on the wall for all to see.
The wheel chairs should clean up with some soapy water.

Having had many years of experience with our daughter's power wheelchairs I don't think paper would do. But a nice painter's canvas might work just great even though someone might need to straighten it out a time or two as the painting takes shape. Sounds like fun.
What a MESS!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the idea I will use it summer of 2007 at The Evergreen State College
Can you donate any supplies?
