The Flint Hills International Children's Festival will be featuring two Sensory-Friendly performances. The performance of Bleu! on Tuesday, May 26 at 11:15am and Wednesday, May 27 at 1:15pm will be designed to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and nurturing environment for individuals with autism spectrum disorder and other individuals with sensory, social, and learning disabilities.
