Community Corner

Especially for Me! Free Evening for Families with Children on the Autism Spectrum

 Both Museums Open



Come
join in all the fun and explore both museums during this special free evening
for families with children on the autism spectrum. Visitors may also drop-in
for a workshop with Romy Wilhelm, a practicing music therapist from Indian Hill
Music. Many studies have shown that music therapy is an effective tool for
reaching this population, as it engages and fosters their capacity for
flexibility, creativity, variability, and tolerance of change. Pre-registration
required. Visit http://bit.ly/Esp4MeMay14
to register.  Food,
including gluten free options, generously provided by Not Your Average Joe’s of
Acton. Funding is provided by The Yawkey Foundations, Morgan Stanley
Foundation, Foundation for MetroWest, and Acton-Boxborough United Way Youth in
Philanthropy and The Fenn School Youth in Philanthropy Program, a program of
the Foundation for MetroWest.
