On April 17, the Gold Centre welcomed the public to their first Open House event, held in honour of the Miriam Foundation’s 50th anniversary and Autism Awareness Month. This provided visitors with an opportunity to explore the facilities of their new centre, inaugurated in 2021, and become acquainted with the various programs and services the Gold Centre offers to individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. 

Of the many highlights, the Centre boasts an arts wing that will house an arts program that is currently under development. Plans include a summer arts camp, a community art hive, dance and music programs.
