Autism and classical myth event with experts - about to happen

A while back I shared some really good news I'd received namely that I'd gained some funding from the Institute of Classical Studies - from their Public Engagement Fund - for a workshop with autism experts. The event in question is about to happen! On Tuesday 2 October! I'm going to be welcoming a group of specialists, including those whose work has been foundational to my project on autism and classical myth, to Roehampton and specially to the Adam Room, the home of the chimneypiece which is the focus of my first set of resources for autistic children. I'll be writing a report on the event for the ICS - and also a post for their blog. I aim to do this asap after the event to capture it's energy and I'll share the link via this blog. I'm so excited to be sharing what I've been developing with a group of wonderful people. To think - we'll all be together talking about autism and myth - with Hercules making his choice in our presence. I'm so deeply grateful to the ICS supporting and enabling the event.
