Uncharted Paths: sh… im thinking

This exhibition offers a detailed synopsis and introduction to neurodiversity and specific learning difficulties (SpLD). Visitors will gain foundational knowledge and general insights into these conditions, fostering greater understanding and empathy.

A highlight of the exhibition is the interactive maze journey, designed to simulate distinct symptoms of SpLD. This engaging activity allows participants to experience the challenges faced by neurodiverse individuals while exploring different areas of the library. Additionally, the display corner on the 3rd floor of the library features a series of artworks by RCA artists, along with a selection of books related to neurodiversity. This curated display aims to deepen appreciation and awareness of the creativity and perspectives within the neurodiverse community.

We invite you to embark on this journey of discovery and investigation into neurodiversity at the RCA Library. Join us in celebrating and understanding the diverse minds that enrich our world.
