Autism Society to host 'Special Bunny' event at Eastwood Mall
NILES, Ohio - The Autism Society of the Mahoning Valley is planning an inclusive Easter event for area families.
They have partnered with the Eastwood Mall to bring its eighth annual Special Bunny to the Mall Concourse this Sunday from 9-11 a.m.
The annual event is dedicated to giving children with special needs a place to take part in seasonal traditions like taking a picture with the Easter Bunny.
Bunnies in Baskets Therapy Rabbits will also be at the event and complimentary train rides are planned. Families will also get a craft bag to take home in place of an egg hunt and games due to COVID.
Masks are required for the event.
"We are blessed to have a terrific family retail operation here in the Valley that has such a long history and strong ties to the
community like the Eastwood Mall," says Robin Suzelis, ASMV Director. "They care enough to coordinate with their photo
operators and staff to lessen potential triggers, open during otherwise closed hours and make other adjustments to provide a great
experience for all children to enjoy."
