AutismBC Goes to Max Party at 365 Fundays (Richmond) (Sold Out!)

We’re excited to invite you to the third annual AutismBC Goes to Max Party at 365 Fundays in Richmond! 

This free community event is for families with children aged 3–12, including siblings in the same age range. Exclusively for AutismBC members, Max Party is a group celebration where every child gets to experience a shared birthday, with a cupcake and a birthday wish for all! 

The venue will be open at half capacity to support a sensory-friendly and inclusive experience for everyone. 

Each year, the theme changes. This year, we are celebrating with a Pokémon theme! The party will be filled with fun and excitement, neurodivergent-friendly dining options, themed takeaways, and unforgettable memories. 

Thanks to the generous, ongoing support of DC Complete Financial, the experience is valued at $170 per child, generously donated to our AutismBC members! Their partnership empowers, supports and connects our community year after year. We are grateful to Max and his family for sharing this celebration with our community again, and to DC Complete Financial for their continued community support, making this special day possible.
