The Sensory Garden and Discovery Space is being created for the well-being, learning, and coping needs of children and adults with autism, sensory impairments, Alzheimer’s, and dementia.
The garden will include multi-purpose programming space that will allow users to experiment with and manipulate natural materials, focus attention on sensory experiences, participate in activities that enhance physical wellness, balance and coordination and engage in calming and relaxing activities.
Below is a conceptual design for the Sensory Garden and Discovery Space as well as ideas for other elements.
