Music Loves Autism to tour provincial Greek towns | 2022-23

For an eighth year, the Music Loves Autism educational program will be touring provincial Greek towns to bring mixed groups of children – with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD) – and their parents in contact with music.

Using musical notes, sounds, and rhythms as a mode of communication, a piano and a saxophone are transformed into means of connecting and conversing in new and different ways.

This music and movement filled workshop champions teamwork, encourages self-expression, promotes social skills, and fosters emotional maturity in each child. Set within a safe environment, musicians, special education teachers, parents, and children all get to know one another as they play and sing together. The goal of this workshop is to get children with and without ASD to unleash their potential in creative ways through experiences drawn from their senses, and from working as a team.

This program includes a two-hour experiential workshop for adults.
