This sensory-friendly astronomy and music show, approximately 45 minutes in length, is specially designed for families with children on the Autism spectrum or those with developmental disabilities. Neurotypical children are welcome as well. The program, which is presented on a kindergarten level, is appropriate for audiences of all ages. During the show, the doors will remain open so children may freely leave and return if they choose. Lights will be left dim (instead of dark), and the audio will be lowered and kept at a consistent level. The show will include music, laser lights, stories, and information about the planets, the Moon, and constellations.

Join us at Gallery on Main for an in-person reception celebrating an exhibition of photographs by exceptionally talented high-school student Lauren Faltas -- our youngest-ever Artist of the Month. Meet the artist, see a selection of her work, and mingle with other artists and art lovers. Admission is free and open to the public. We hope to see you there! Lauren Faltas’s work will be on view, and available for purchase, at Gallery on Main throughout January 2023. See more of Lauren’s work at http://www.galleryonmainst.com/news/2022/lauren-faltas
