Join us on June 15th for our Second Annual Autistic Pride Day Celebration!
Autistic Pride Day is an annual celebration started by and for Autistic people. Throughout our event, there will be poetry readings, speeches, musical performances, games, crafts and more. You're welcome to come any time during the event. Feel free to walk around, relax with a picnic blanket in the grass, and connect with the community!
This event will be sensory friendly, and we will be providing free sensory toys, earplugs and other souvenirs to attendees.
This event is open to all ages. All of our speakers, performers, artists, and volunteers are autistic, but this event is open to the general public.
We've made a fundraiser to raise money for this event! Help us pay for permits, tables/a stage, earplugs, souvenirs, etc!
Suggested Donation $15
