Nature calls!
Join this dynamic group of young adults on the autism spectrum for a year-long journey into the animal kingdom! We’ll learn about, and learn from, animals: small to large, friendly and ferocious. Spectrum Theatre is focused on developing sensory safety through the application of drama therapy and Polyvagal informed exercises. We also practice social skills, and mostly we have fun together!
The group meets on the first and third Thursdays of each month from September 2024 through May 2025. Register using the links on our website or Facebook page for details about location and costs.
In memoriam – Samuel Scott Simmons, Jr.
Today we mourn the loss of one of our own. Samuel Scott Simmons, Jr., 34, died Saturday, July 6, 2024 after losing a heroic battle with a drug-resistant lung infection.
Born in Greenville, he was the son of Samuel Scott Simmons, Sr. and Susan Clary Simmons. Samuel was a graduate of JL Mann High School and earned an associate degree at Greenville Technical College. He was a member of Greenville’s First Presbyterian Church and the Gathering Sunday Life Group. Samuel treasured home and family, games and conversations, reading and movies. He was a poet, a Lego-builder extraordinaire and an unbeatable trivia buff. He loved exploring new places and trying exotic foods (especially desserts).
Samuel was a charter member of Spectrum Theatre and over the years he wrote and performed many wonderful characters, poems and stories. He was a thoughtful friend and a quiet presence in our group.
A celebration of life will be held on Friday, July 12, 2024 at First Presbyterian Church at 2:00 p.m. followed by a visitation at the church.
When we meet again in September we will keep an empty chair in our circle for Samuel.
