Summer Week Amsterdam 2026
10 August – 13 August
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
with autism. No experience required! Our programs are bilingual. Instructions are given in both Dutch and English.
No pressure to perform, but plenty of room to try, laugh and
make new friends! The week ends with a final presentation for
parents, family and friends.

Guidance
The summer week is supervised by experienced trainers who have extensive experience with autism. Several team members are present throughout the summer week. 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 week including lunch!
Money should not be a stumbling block to participation. There are various options for reimbursing participation costs, for example through a PGB or the Youth Fund for Sport and Culture.
