CREATIVITY IS A SPECTRUM
About Us
Celebrate Neurodiversity is a grassroots initiative dedicated to amplifying neurodivergent voices. We feature autistic, ADHD, and other neurodivergent creators to build understanding, challenge assumptions, and celebrate the gifts within the community.
With a broad definition of art, Celebrating Neurodiversity in the Arts welcomes professional and hobbyist neurodivergent artists through various formats. By focusing on lived experiences and fostering belonging, we aim to make space for artists to be seen, heard, and valued.
Celebrating Neurodiversity in the Arts brings community together online and at an in-person event on April 18, 2026 in Mount Vernon, Washington.
The Annual Event
Join us Saturday, April 18, 2026, 11:00 -12:30 at the Mount Vernon Library Community Room for this year’s Celebrating Neurodiversity in the Arts! Featured neurodivergent artists will share their personal journeys of how art shapes their lives, the importance of neurodivergent representation, and navigating societal barriers.
The event is free and open to all, with food, coffee, and fidgets to enjoy.
