Four days of improvisation, voice acting and a workshop by Daniel Kolf
In the last week of the summer vacation, InterActing in Amsterdam organizes
four days of theater, games and encounters for young people ages 12 to 25

Guidance
The summer school are supervised by experienced trainers who have extensive experience with autism. Several team members are present throughout the summer school. They actively observe and help with what a person needs.
Group layout
We make group assignments based on intake forms, age, cognitive level and experience.
Cost
€245 for the entire summer school including lunch!
Money should not be a stumbling block to participation. There are several options for reimbursing participation fees, for example through a PGB or the Youth Fund for Sport and Culture.
