About the Event
Our Inks and Inclusion: CARES Across Cultures event will be a series of three events that is part of the City of Bellevue Cross-Cultural Without Walls. This is an inclusive art event for all neurodiversed individuals and families from the community. We hope the participants can walk away with an understanding of the perspectives from individuals other than their identified background.
Art serves as a more accessible form of self-expression, especially for individuals with neurodiversed backgrounds, surpassing verbal communication or written words. Through our art event series, we hope people will learn the value of diversity and the power of creative expression in fostering unity and understanding. Ultimately, we aim to cultivate a supportive and inclusive community where individuals feel empowered to express themselves authentically and connect with others on a deeper level through art.
Event Details:
- 10 am - Doors Open. Check-in and sign Photo Release forms.

微雨过，小荷翻，榴花开欲然。漫长的等待后，我们终于迎来了西雅图的夏天。7月27日，科思携手Love Me Love Us，诚邀您加入我们，共同拥抱盛夏，感谢拥有，用绘画的语言表达爱！
科思一直致力于促进社区融合，增进对神经多样性的理解与接纳。绘画是一种无声的诗，通过线条的勾勒，讲述人们共同的情感。跨越文化、种族和年龄的界限，每一种爱都值得被表达、被聆听、被赞美。
时间：7月27日，周六，10am-12pm
地点：crossroads community center
主题：expressing love 爱的表达
活动细节介绍
在活动现场，我们设置了四个创作站，引导孩子们使用各种美术材料进行创作。随后，孩子们将展示他们的作品，并通过Bingo游戏进行跨文化交流和互动。科思有幸参与Cross-Cultures Without Walls文化活动，主办三期“Inks and Inclusion: CARES Across Cultures”亲子绘画活动。 第一期活动，我们专注于对爱的感受和表达。
通过我们的艺术活动系列，我们希望人们能够体会到多样性的价值，以及创造性表达在促进理解和和谐中的力量。艺术作为一种更易于接近的自我表达形式，对于神经多样性的个体尤为重要，超越了口头交流或书面文字的限制。
