We have been fortunate enough to develop a connection with the Yale Center for British Art, and their Education Curator, Linda Freidlaender. Ms. Freidlaender is the creator of the The Yale Center for British Art’s “Exploring Artism,” a monthly program for families with children, ages 5 to 10 years, who are on the autism spectrum. For more information about this amazing program, see www.autisminthemuseum.org.
Ms. Friedlaender is working with our Initiative to develop arts programs for young women on the spectrum with a view towards helping participants increase their expressive abilities and communication skills.
More on that project later!
