Now in its 29th year, the Parent/Child Workshops in the Arts for Children with Autism is a signature program of VSA New Jersey. Through participation in weekly workshops, young people will enhance their understanding and appreciation of the arts while developing skills essential for academic and personal growth. The family arts experience offers unique opportunities to engage children, siblings, and parents in enjoyable and enriching activities that will support communication and interaction in the workshop setting and at home.
