Specialty Products

Promote your business and help support the mission of Area Residential Care. Individuals with disabilities create many specialty products for you and your business at the Dubuque and Manchester Vocational Centers.

Custom Ceramics

Workers at the workshops produce custom-made kiln-fired china, glass, or ceramic items that can be used for advertising, special promotions, or gift shop and museum sales. All items are dishwasher safe and guaranteed to please. You can send your own artwork, or we can work with you to design a special piece with the look of your choice. We have low minimums and reorders can be processed within days.

Florals

Floral Treasures

Our wreaths, shadow boxes, and custom wall hangings are a beautiful and long lasting memory of a special event or loved one. Once flowers are delivered to the Vocational Center in Dubuque or Manchester, they are separated and dried. When they are ready in about four to six weeks, they are then designed into the mementos of your choice. You can arrange for the creation of these items through your florist or funeral director, or by contacting the Vocational Centers directly. The process of creating these memories provides a unique and rewarding employment opportunity for people with disabilities.
