FEATURED EVENTS

Prior to opening to the general public, the museum will be open for a Sensory-Friendly event. Sensory Friendly Day begins at 9 a.m. You are welcome to stay as long as you wish, however the museum will open to the public at noon on Sensory Friendly Day. Trained museum educators and volunteers will be stationed around the museum with specially designed interactive activities to create a meaningful experience at each exhibit. Sensory-friendly activities are available until 1pm. Social Narratives and maps are available for download on our website prior to your visit. Visual supports, such as schedules and sensory-friendly maps will be available to help guide individuals through their preferred routes. Quiet/Calm down spaces will be available throughout the museum and highlighted on the provided venue map. Several sensory-friendly items will be available for sale in the Gift Station.
