Sensory Friendly Morning is designed for families with neurodivergent children or teenagers to explore the museum at a quieter, less-crowded time. The recommended age for this experience is 10 and up, but all are welcome. The experience is self-guided, and guests can choose to participate in additional activities; some exhibit elements will be adapted to accommodate sensitivities to light and sound.
All guests are invited to participate in the Halloween theme with optional, not-scary costumes and trick-or-treating around the galleries for fun fidgets, bookmarks, and mini-books.
Prior to the event, registered guests will receive pre-visit materials (including a social narrative and sensory map). Registered guests are welcome to drop in at any time during the event.
