Hello,
I am also a mother of a boy with autism. I am the founder of Jordan Lake School of the Arts in Apex, NC-an inclusive school for children on the spectrum with an arts based approach to education. I have a local and national radio show and interviewed DJ Svoboda yesterday-he is in your lovely book which we also mentioned. I would love to do a phone interview with you for the show if possible. I would also be so grateful to know if you would work with us on a show-we have created our own unique canvases using a special dye that each child has a part in—inclusive art at its best. The theme is “One.” Thank you for your consideartion!
Best,
Beth Kuklinski
