Introducing the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum’s new sequential program series, which serves students with autism spectrum disorders.
Each program is especially catered to the specific needs of the group, and includes two classroom visits by a museum educator and two museum visits, one for the class and one for the families.
Program goals:
- Provides a developmentally sound museum and art educational opportunity for children on the spectrum
- Offers a more accessible and welcoming experience at the Guggenheim for students of all abilities and their families
- Imparts indirect professional development for teachers, illustrating how to incorporate art and architecture into the classroom curriculum
- Strengthens students’ communication and socialization skills through a rich group experience, mixing familiar settings with a new environment and new routines
These programs are highly subsidized through the generosity of several donors.
Tuition assistance is available for Title I NYC public schools.
Fee: $600/class
