The Sensory Arts Garden at The Els Center of Excellence is purposely designed for individuals with autism. Through interaction with plants and materials that engage the senses – sight, smell, touch, taste, sound – and also movement, the garden provides a much-needed balance of stimulating and calming sensory experiences. The garden addresses the challenge of creating a nurturing sensory environment for individuals with autism to enhance their capacity to successfully work, play, socialize and learn.
