Aaron’s Art for Autism is proud to present “America the Beautiful”, a special art gallery event taking place July 10–12, 2026, Friday: 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Saturday: 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM and Sunday: 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the Loveland American Legion, located at 897 Oakland Road, Loveland, OH 45140.

This three-day event will bring together art enthusiasts, members of the local community, veterans, and supporters of Aaron’s Art for Autism to celebrate the beauty, history, and spirit of America during its 250th Anniversary. A portion of proceeds from the event will benefit local Cincinnati-area veterans and their families.

Visitors will have the opportunity to view and purchase more than 40 original paintings by artist Aaron Strait and his mother, Dawn. Their artwork features breathtaking American landscapes, historic landmarks, trains, patriotic scenes, and other iconic images that capture the heart of our nation.

In addition to the gallery, attendees can enjoy:

Nine themed raffle baskets
Daily raffle drawings throughout the event
Artwork raffle of Aaron’s latest painting, called The Majestic Eagle
A coloring station featuring pages inspired by Aaron’s original artwork
Unique coloring books and greeting cards featuring Aaron’s paintings
Proceeds from painting sales, raffles, coloring books, and greeting cards will help support local veterans and their families through the Loveland American Legion.

Founded in 2012, Aaron’s Art for Autism has raised funds for organizations that benefit individuals with disabilities throughout the Greater Cincinnati area, including The BrewHaus Dog Bones, the Milford High School Service Dog Program, Companions on a Journey, the Freestore Foodbank, and many others.

To honor America’s 250th Anniversary, Aaron and his mother have chosen to donate a portion of this year’s proceeds to local veterans. Aaron has long admired the service and sacrifice of our military, inspired by his grandfather’s service in the U.S. Navy during World War II. He is always grateful for those who have served and continues to thank veterans personally whenever he meets them.
