A sensory stand, a florist workshop, consultations with specialists, a sailing picnic – these are just some of the events organised on the occasion of the Lublin Autism Day. We invite you to familiarise yourself with the detailed programme.
And today we encourage you to participate in the Blue Walk through the streets of Lublin! With the colour blue we show our solidarity and acceptance for people experiencing autism. At 7:20 p.m. Plac. Litewski Square will be lit up in this colour.
Blue is both the colour of a bright summer sky on a sunny day and a child’s joyful eyes, as well as the cool endlessness of the ocean and dark, rainy clouds on the horizon – it can have many shades – just as people on the autism spectrum have very different intensities of behaviours and characteristics of this neurodevelopmental disorder. ‘Autistic people develop differently from most people. In other words, an autistic person’s brain works in a non-standard way from the very beginning of life and this makes all development follow a different path. It is not something that can be cured, but rather part of who the person is.’ (https://polskiautyzm.pl/autyzm/ accessed 02.04.2025)
