ACW Sensory Space is a Coaching For A Better World Project. Read More
The re-Imagineers are a powerful group of women working within ACW’s Coaching Project for a Better World. Madalina Kelner is the Coaching Project Manager who works closely with Beverly Tipton Hammond, Artist Coach, and Sandra Reardon, Scientist Coach. The team has been working toward implementing a sensory-friendly space in a facility that could benefit from its healing.
The re-Imagineers recently toured Wilshire Park Elementary School’s sensory space to get a clear idea of a successfully running sensory space model.
The ACW Sensory Space is being implemented within an Emma Norton residential project for homeless mothers and their children. Emma Norton provides transformational housing and growth for women and families on their journey of recovery. The Sensory Space being installed is extremely apropos to Emma’s residents and helps people of all ages re-center and heal and offers options of sensory experiences that calm and relax through a variety of textures, sounds, and smells made available. This Coaching Project for a Better World Sensory Space will be adorned with safe storage, comfortable seating, and a mural project led by a local artist. The project was funded by The Minnesota Regional Arts Council, ACW and Harlen Luxenberg (President & CEO, Professional Data Analysts).
