As you browse the works of creative expression featured in the gallery, consider the wonder of our human ability to dream and conceive … to create something out of nothing. Such ability is a gift, and one that has been distributed across all levels of society, among all kinds of minds. We hope you’ll be uplifted by the experience.

  • Art

    spiral_artArt allows us to see the world through another person's eyes, and has the power to change our own way of looking at things real or imagined. The Roman poet Horace said, "A picture is a poem without words." The works in this section reflect the perspectives of both individuals with autism and those who have reflected on autism through a creative lens.

  • Essays

    essays We recognize trained and experienced professionals as experts in their fields – but we also believe parents have a unique brand of expertise, as the ones who know their children better than anyone else in the world. Other family members, caregivers, teachers and friends also have experiences and insights that provide us with new perspective. We invite you to read our featured stories, and to consider sending us your own.

    Video and film have a unique potential to capture a moment in time -- to allow the viewer to step inside our experience. As Brian May, lead guitarist for Queen (and astrophysicist!) simply states, "A good video can make all the difference."
