Providing a safe place for young people with disabilities to learn about live theater performances and engage in creative arts with peers.
About this Event

The Autism Program at Easterseals and Gateway Performing Arts are partnering to provide a FREE social theater group for autistic individuals ages 14-22 and their siblings.

This is an 8-week program runs every Wednesday, starting January 8, 2025 - March 5, 2025 from 5:15PM - 6:15PM.

We provide a safe place for young people with disabilities to learn about live theater performances, create set props such as puppets, and engage in other creative arts with a group of their peers. They learn from and with one another, practice socializing, and often forge new friendships that positively impact their social/emotional well-being.

You must complete the intake process to enroll by contacting Lori Davie at 815-395-5566 or email [email protected].
