The most important postcard in Rio de Janeiro, Christ the Redeemer, will turn blue on the evening of Wednesday, April 2nd, from 18pm to 22pm, for the National Autism Week in Brazil, which runs until April 7th, and that this year announces the theme "Autism in Brazil asks for help."
The Sanctuary of Christ the Redeemer’s rector, father Omar Raposo, will begin the religious ceremony at 17pm. The initiative aims to remind society about the importance of treating autistic people with dignity and citizenship, primarily through the development of specific public policies.
The moment promises to thrill the public even more with the participation of autistic musicians, who will testify that gifts and talents are given to all people, but especially to those who believe and strive with dedication and willpower to develop their skills, regardless of any limitation.
