Join us for a fun and enriching 10-week program designed to foster creativity, confidence, physical activity, and social connection in neurodivergent individuals! Our Tuesday Basketball & Photography Program offers a dynamic and inclusive environment where participants can explore both athletic and artistic skills through structured, supportive instruction tailored to their individual needs and strengths.

5:00 – 6:00 PM: Basketball

This session offers fundamental basketball instruction, skill-building drills, and inclusive games for all ages and experience levels. From dribbling and passing to teamwork and communication, participants will build confidence and physical coordination in a fun and engaging environment. Activities are modified as needed to support individual learning styles and motor abilities.

Led by an experienced instructor with a passion for teaching beginners, this session introduces participants to the art of photography. Using a custom-designed curriculum, students will learn how to capture the world through their unique lens. The program culminates in a final-day Art Gallery Showcase, where participants will display their work for friends and family. Invitations will be provided to celebrate their creativity and progress.
