Art + Autism: Exploring Color + Water

Friday, July 11, 10 – 11:30 AM
Art + Autism is a family/group program that centers youth with Autism in an art exploration experience. Through hands-on art experience and guided art making, we strive to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for all families and we welcome participants to come with a support person. Through activities in the Convergence exhibition, we will explore color and water and how they interact. Our teacher will show a variety of watercolor resist techniques and we can choose our favorites to make our unique painting. For ages 11-17. Free with registration.

Sensory Sundays

First Sunday of every month from 11 AM – 2 PM
We embrace the unique qualities of all who walk through our doors and appreciate that many visitors need to explore the Museum in different ways. For individuals and families who prefer a quiet, less sensory-stimulating environment we offer Sensory Sundays on the first Sunday afternoon of every month. At each event, loud gallery sounds and bright lights are turned down and attendance is limited. Fidget bags will be available for checkout. Please contact Alatera McCann, with any questions: amccann@plainsart.org / 701.551.6119.
