Wonderspace
A Creative Sanctuary for Neurodivergent Youth. A sensory-friendly, immersive arts experience where creativity has no rules and everyone belongs.
Wonderspace is a new workshop series by Wondiverse, designed especially for neurodivergent youth. It’s a gentle, choice-based exploration of creative expression through a range of immersive art practices—all set within a quiet, sensory-friendly environment.
Over the course of each session, young people are free to participate as much or as little as they like. There’s no pressure—just a beautifully curated space filled with creative possibilities.
- Explore the magic of shadow puppetry
- Be mesmerised by liquid light projection
- Express yourself through creative writing
- Or simply sit, observe, and take it all in at your own pace
Facilitated by a neurodivergent-led team who understand sensory needs and individual rhythms, Wonderspace is a place where young people can discover, play, and be exactly who they are—no expectations, just curiosity and connection.
It’s not just a creative workshop—it’s a reimagining of what it means to belong, to express, and to connect.
In traditional spaces, creativity often comes with expectations: follow the rules, meet the outcomes, stay on task. But Wonderspace is different. It’s a gentle, choice-based environment where young people can explore on their own terms, in their own time, and in the way that works best for them. Whether they’re building a shadow puppet world, watching the swirling colours of a liquid light projection, writing their own stories, or simply observing from a quiet corner—Wonderspace meets them where they are.
The difference lies in neuroinclusion. In a space created by neurodivergent people for neurodivergent people, the atmosphere shifts. There is no pressure to perform or behave a certain way. Every movement, moment of stillness, question, stim, or silence is welcome. This freedom creates the conditions where real connection can happen—where trust can grow, and where creativity flows naturally, not forcefully.
Connection in Wonderspace doesn’t always look like conversation. It might look like two people building silently side by side. Like someone seeing their own sensory needs reflected in the room. Like a young person, for the first time, feeling safe enough to share their ideas—or simply enjoy being part of something without needing to engage in any specific way.
Facilitated by a neurodivergent-led team who understand sensory needs and honour individual rhythms, Wonderspace is designed to be calming, open, and supportive. It’s a space where creativity becomes a bridge—connecting people not through sameness, but through acceptance.
Let them wander. Let them wonder. Let them connect in their own way.This is Wonderspace—where everyone belongs.
