"You reminded families like mine that we belong here too."

At our recent sensory-friendly performance of Disney's The Lion King, Bridie watched her son experience live theater in a way she once wasn't sure would be possible.

“We didn’t have to apologize for noises or feel like we had to shrink ourselves to fit into the space. Instead, there was joy, understanding and grace. It allowed families to breathe a sigh of relief.”

This is the power of belonging. Moments like these are only possible because of a community that believes everyone deserves access to the arts.

Consider how your support can create more moments of joy, belonging and understanding for families like Bridie's.
