Exploring Artism at the Yale Center for British Art

This is a free program for families with children who are five to twelve years of age and on the autism spectrum. Participants look at artwork in the museum’s galleries and create a follow-up art project in a museum classroom. A quiet room is available throughout the session with blankets and sensory toys. While the needs of individuals with autism are taken into account for the design of this program, it is also intended to be fun for parents, siblings, and other relatives too! Pre-registration is required.
For more information or to register a child, contact Education (ycba.tours@yale.edu|+1 203 432 2858) with your name, number, and a good time to reach you. A museum educator will contact you by phone to complete your registration.
This program is conducted by the Education department of the Yale Center for British Art in consultation with the Yale Child Study Center and is recommended by the Autism Parents Community (APC). More information can be found at the Exploring Artism at the Yale Center for British Art e-resource.
