Guided visit ‘Guia’m al Monestir de Pedralbes’
About the event
Project developed in collaboration with the Monestir de Sant Cugat and the Fundació Friends. Discover the details of monastic life through a tour of the main spaces of the complex. The visit is led by a person with Asperger’s syndrome, an autism spectrum condition characterised primarily by difficulties in social interaction, restrictive and repetitive patterns of behaviour, and intolerance of change and unforeseen situations, without any associated significant impairment of intellectual ability. Guia’m is a labour inclusion project launched at the Monestir de Sant Cugat in collaboration with the Fundació Friends, enabling people with Asperger’s syndrome to work as guides in cultural institutions. The project aims to normalise the social and working lives of this community through the transformative potential of culture, while also fostering personal autonomy and challenging stigma and prejudice surrounding people with this condition. Limited places.
