Digital Art and Technology Access Spring 2026

DATA is a media arts and technology program designed for neurodivergent individuals (such as individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, etc.) ages 13-19. A series of year-round workshops builds creative and social skills. Students learn a range of media-based practices to suit all interests in technology and art.

In DATA we provide a minimum 4:1 student-to-instructor ratio, noise-canceling headphones, snacks, and a separate sensory-friendly space outside the classroom for breaks. Our patient and passionate instructors have extensive experience working with neurodivergent teens, and all have relevant combined training and/or degrees in fields like fine art, special education and social work.

Thanks to our generous funders, DATA is free to all participants.
