Carolee Kamlager is not only passionate about working with disabled individuals, but passionate about advocating their self-expression. Carolee was the Director of Adult Services for United Cerebral Palsey, an organization similar to V & V, for several years. Along with Keith Banner and Bill Ross, Carolee played a significant role in V & V’s founding.

As a long-time social worker, Carolee has spent most of her life working with the disabled, and lists it as her number one interest. She is also a part-time professor at the University of Kentucky, and is working on obtaining her doctorate degree in social work. She would like to see V & V expand beyond the visual arts, and become more involved in the Northside community. Carolee is a resident of North Avondale.
