Description

Art Compass: Building Social and Vocational Skills for Teens and Young Adults with Autism - Ages 13 - 21

During this workshop series, teens and young adults will receive hands on training in basic artistic processes that can be translated into practical job skills. Based on current exhibitions in the galleries at Nassau County Museum of Art and work on view at The Manes Center, these workshops will encourage participants to explore different methods of art making and design. As well as how a museum can be a resource for creative inspiration. Students with autism will have the opportunity to apply their artistic skills and functional academic learning in a real world setting, while preparing to transition to after school life.
