Autism Art Drop in: Today

 Join us every Saturday for our autism art drop in at Sticks Gallery

Every Saturday we invite those with autism up to the age of 16 to come with their care giver and attend one of our autism art drop in sessions.

These are a laid back affair where those with autism can experiment with art and different sensory materials while their care giver can sit on our sofa and have a cup of tea and a chat.

For just £2 to cover materials you can come in and create, chat, drink tea and those attending the session can enjoy squash and a biscuit.  After the session you are free to take home what you make (if ready) or have it added to our community art wall.

The space itself is autism friendly with a chill out area, low level lighting, PECS, headphones available and you can even download a social story about coming to the gallery below:

This session runs every Saturday between 1 – 2:30pm.  No need to book, just drop in!
