ABOUT ABOUT

Ages 7-12

1:00 - 4:00 pm

Teaachers: Amanda Blake and Stacy Calloway

Interact with works of art in the galleries, engage in a variety of hands-on experiences and explore art processes to create works of art in the studio during this camp designed specifically for children with autism spectrum disorders. Each day will be a new art adventure as we explore different themes through gallery visits, art-making activities, sensory experiences and the campers' own personal interest. On the final day of camp, a special guest music therapist will lead interactive musical activities to spark our imaginations and get our toes tapping! Autism specialists from local schools and occupational therapy students will assist with the camp, providing one-on-one guidance. Visual picture schedules and social stories will be used to integrate art, music, social interaction, sensory exploration and movement. Please note: Parents will receive a camper survey prior to this camp so that teachers can plan specific activities and projects that will appeal to the children's interests.
