The Urban Conga’s Optik – Big Umbrella Festival

Launched in 2018, the Big Umbrella Festival centers our audiences by sharing unique approaches to multi-sensory, interactive, and engaging artistic experiences, designed with and for neurodiverse audiences. This summer, the celebrated Festival returns as a free 1-day campus takeover full of relaxed spaces with multi-sensory experiences, performances, installations, and workshops specifically welcoming neurodivergent audiences and their families. You and your family will have access to the full roster of programming below, with the ability to drop-in throughout the day, experiencing as much or as little as you’d like.
