North - Sault Ste Marie - Tie Dye with us to Celebrate the Spectrum (bilingual)

Registration opens March 5 at noon 

Join us for a joyful day of creativity, connection, and celebration! 

Celebrate the Spectrum: Tie-Dye Together! is a free, inclusive community event that brings families from across Ontario together to honor creativity, individuality, and connection. 

This family-focused event features a fun and engaging tie-dye T-shirt activity, symbolizing the unique and diverse experiences of individuals on the autism spectrum. Just as no two tie-dye shirts are alike, every autistic person brings their own strengths, perspectives, and colors to our community. 

Families can drop into a welcoming and supportive environment to design custom shirts using a vibrant palette of colors. This hands-on activity encourages self-expression while offering a sensory-friendly experience for children and youth. 

In addition to tie-dye, families can enjoy: 

• -Entertainment
• -Community partner booths
• -Crafts and sensory play
• -Light snacks and more!

Important Details:  

• -All participants will receive one white shirt; due to the nature of this event there will be limited shirt sizes.
• -Families are welcome to bring their own shirt to tie dye. All supplies to tie dye your shirt will be provided.
• -Cost: Free

We encourage all families to wear their tie-dye shirts on April 2^nd, 2026, World Autism Day and to any of the Celebrate The Spectrum Events in April.
