See Me Neurodiverse Community Fest
See Me Neurodiverse Community Fest
See Me is thrilled to host our inaugural See Me Neurodiverse Community Fest in Prior Lake on Sunday, September 8, 2024!
As a nonprofit dedicated to supporting neurodiverse families, See Me Neurodiverse aims to foster inclusivity and raise awareness about neurodiversity in our community and beyond. We thought holding an event dedicated to neurodiversity would be the perfect way to bring the community together and introduce available resources.

Time: 3 PM – 6 PM
Where: Lakefront Park, Prior Lake, MN
Our Neurodiverse Community Fest is a wonderful opportunity to:
-

Build connections among parents, children, and community members.

Educate attendees about neurodiversity and how we can support one another.
What to Expect

Joy Mobile
The Joy Mobile is a one-stop sensory experience designed to help reset and re-engage. Developed in partnership with designers and those with lived experience, and those raising and teaching the neurodiverse community.
-
The Joy Mobile provides a range of supportive sensory experiences.
-
It’s an environment to satisfy and reset acoustic, visual, tactile, and olfactory senses.
-
Creates a one-stop space that provides safety, relief, and focus for those who are neurodivergent.
Sensory-Friendly Tents
In addition to the Joy Mobile sensory experience, we will also have sensory-friendly tents for anyone who may need to take a sensory-break. This space will have tools like weighted blankets, crash pads, exercise balls, fidget toys, noise-canceling headphones, and more.
A big thank you to Duck Cup Memorial and Note-Able Music Therapy for sponsoring the sensory-friendly spaces.
