The Koegel Autism Center will be holding its ninth neurodivergent art show, by and for those who think differently. Titled “Unmasking Through Art,” the show will open on Thursday, November 19, from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm at the Koegel Autism Center on the UC Santa Barbara campus. Quiet viewing will be available from 5:30 pm to 6:00 pm. This event is free and open to the public.
Through this event, the Koegel Autism Center hopes to highlight the diverse ways neurodivergent individuals experience and interpret the world. “Unmasking Through Art” aims to create an inclusive, affirming space where neurodivergent artists can express themselves freely, share their perspectives, and celebrate their identities through art. Artists will receive 100% of the proceeds from any artwork they sell.
The Koegel Autism Center, at the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education at UCSB, is internationally recognized for its innovative autism research and clinical training. The center focuses on the development and implementation of strength-based, motivational support services, interventions, and psychological evaluations for individuals with autism and their families.
