My Goal:

To erase the harmful stigma which revolves around the Disability Community. The goal is to expand my network and expand my online store, selling my artwork to bring together an empowered community that feels free to be themselves: unmasked. Everyone deserves a chance regardless of labels.

Art is a powerful vehicle that enables me to connect with myself and others on multiple levels.

Pritchard works to unmask society by breaking down barriers brought on by misconceptions and stereotypes that revolve around neurodiversity, mental health, and addiction. Instead of focusing too much on labels, Pritchard focuses more on the ‘human’ component. 

Everyone has insecurities and while these parts of ourselves manifest uniquely, it’s still a universal experience we all share.

Let’s Unmask!!

is a neurodiverse artist, advocate, teacher, author, presenter and mentor whose advocacy has taken her to Taiwan, Philippines, Mexico and Canada. Pritchard is the creator of an original comic book series titled PaperBag Comic, which is a series of short stories about learning to love all of oneself in spite of their flaws – too much doubt can be very debilitating, but the right amount can help you be the best version of yourself. 

Pritchard illustrates inclusion for all kinds of minds, and focuses much more on the human component of each character. Pritchard has self-published over 800 pages of this series so far, which is still ongoing. During the COVID pandemic, Pritchard has also produced a one hundred-page poetry book featuring her original poems.

Pritchard advocates for autism and mental health conditions, and was featured in CITY Newspaper as one of Rochester’s 10. Pritchard also is an Ambassador for the Autism Council of Rochester, the organization that opened an autism center dedicated to Trevyan Rowe. She was also interviewed on ROC Voices Radio on the topic of recovery from addiction, and on Spectrum News several times for autism acceptance, and most recently on WXXI’s Dialogue on Disability and NPR for finding opportunity as an artist in the midst of a global pandemic.

It was through Pritchard’s mentor, Alec Frazier (who passed away in February 2021), that she was introduced to the Lights! Camera! Access! (LCA) network, where she learned how to network and build strong, meaningful connections.

Through LCA, Pritchard was hired as the Post Production Supervisor and Video Editor for the ADA30 Lead On: Celebration of Disability Arts, Culture, Education and Pride Production and the NDEAM (National Disability Employment Awareness Month) Production of 2020.
