AIPC is proud to support Milosz and his talent.
AIPC proudly supports Milosz Gasior, a 21-year-old musician defying autism through his extraordinary piano talent. Diagnosed at age two and a half, Milosz faces challenges in daily life but excels in music. Featured by CBS, ABC, and local news channels, his story has garnered support from the Polish-American community, with Polish Assistance, Inc. sponsoring him.
To help him monetize his talent on YouTube, he needs 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours yearly. Listen, subscribe, and share. Exposure could lead to event or restaurant piano gigs. Donations for his piano lessons can be made through Polish Assistance. Despite his disabilities, Milosz's music offers him solace, and your support can make a significant impact on his journey.

Milosz Made History!
He is the recipient of the Dr. Cody Clark Thelo Award. Milosz made history graduating as the first Piano Major with autism in the school's 35- year-old history. To quote Derek Weston, PCCA (Pinellas County Center for the Arts) Program Director:
"Students nominated for this award use their artistic strengths to empower them to overcome challenges or obstacles in life. Personal trials are often kept from public recognition and are the privileged information of counselors, administrators, family members, and the most intimate of companions.[...]This year’s recipient is one of the most unique and remarkable musicians who has ever attended our program. His presence on our campus has made us all better educators, and it is an absolute joy to see how far he has come in his four years in our program. He has inspired his fellow students, teachers, and anyone who has heard him perform. This year’s Dr. Cody Clark Thelo Award goes to none other than Milosz Gasior."
- Our mission is to increase Milosz’s visibility and provide support so that he is able to meet his challenges and ensure his own success. At the same time, we want to highlight Milosz’s story to increase autism awareness among Polish-Americans and to provide encouragement to many other families who are challenged with raising an autistic child. If you would like to invite him to play at one of your events, network, reach out, or simply offer support to this very special young man, please reach out to bozenagasior@gmail.com or aipctampabay@gmail.com
