Join us for a special screening of Carl the Collector, a new PBS KIDS animated series that follows Carl, a warm-hearted raccoon who loves collecting things.
Enjoy an episode of the show, followed by snacks and a hands-on activity where kids can make their very own collecting jar. This is a free event, but registration is required. Register here: https://app.etapestry.com/…/Muncie…/default/index.php…
The show breaks new ground as the first PBS KIDS series to feature central characters on the autism spectrum. Carl’s attention to detail, distinctive way of looking at the world, and extensive collections help him solve problems around Fuzzytown with his friends.
Representation matters. Seeing someone like you gives children who share these experiences a sense of visibility and belonging. Seeing diversity onscreen helps all children understand and appreciate differences, which is essential for building inclusive attitudes and reducing stereotypes about disabilities.
We look forward to seeing you there for an afternoon of fun and creativity!
