On July 3, 2024, the third annual Sensory Sensitive Fourth of July Celebration at The Sound at Cypress Waters offers a fun and safe alternative for individuals and pets with noise sensitivity.
After two years of laser light shows and determining their ineffectiveness, the program has transitioned to a new final presentation: the Star Spangle Glow, an LED Bracelet Experience. This innovative show will provide attendees with LED bracelets that synchronize to create a dynamic and immersive light display, offering a unique and engaging way to celebrate. Admission to the event is free.
This event has been created to keep individuals with sensory sensitivities in mind. These individuals may include those who experience all spectrums of autism or a broad range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communication. It also includes individuals who suffer from an aversion to loud noises, including veterans, and families who own pets that are typically affected by loud noises.
The event will be held on July 3 from 6 – 10 p.m. for a concert by Lover, A Tribute to Taylor Swift, animal education from Creature Teacher, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra Petting Zoo, Disc Dog Demonstrations on the lawn, face painting and more.
