This Sensory Art & Craft Workshop is 2 hours, structured, autism-friendly program designed for children with autism and other developmental disabilities. The workshop provides a calm, inclusive environment where children can explore hands-on art activities while also building emotional regulation and social skills.

Each session includes:

• A structured welcome with a visual schedule

• Sensory warm-up activities to support regulation

• Guided art activities using textured and adaptive materials

• A calm-down corner with fidgets and sensory tools

• Brief parent connection and resource-sharing time

In addition, we provide each participating child with a free sensory toy to take home, helping extend regulation tools beyond the workshop. We also provide pizza and drinks for families, creating a welcoming, community-centered environment where parents and children can connect comfortably.

The goal of the workshop is to encourage creative expression, improve emotional regulation, increase peer interaction, and reduce stress for families. We create a trauma-informed, supportive space where children can participate at their own pace and families feel welcomed and understood.
