IN THE EVENING:
In the evening, Jake’s House provided complimentary tickets to our autism community for a special screening of the OKAY! The ASD Band film at Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema. After the film, the band performed on stage, introduced by none other than Ed Robertson and Tyler Stewart of the Bare Naked Ladies! Lauren Howe, an actress, model, engineer, and more, led a Q&A session with the band, Rawan Tuffaha, Jackson Begley, Ron Adea, Spenser Murray, musical director Maury Lafoy, and director Mark Bone. They shared their inspiring words about breaking down the stigma of autism and the limitless possibilities within the ASD community. On this day, it had been a full year since the film first premiered!
Jake’s House also set up an ASD Band Merchandise table, where they raised a total of $1,620 with 100% of the proceeds supporting Jake’s House and the ASD Band. Jake’s House is so grateful to everyone who purchased merchandise and contributed to their cause.
