Sensory-Friendly Saturday: Art in Nature
Individuals on the autism spectrum or with sensory processing disorder and their families are invited to join us for early access to the Museum and a variety of creative and accessible activities.
Created in conjunction with local families and occupational therapists, this inclusive and accessible program strives to provide a welcoming experience through offering:
• Pre-visit social stories
• Reduced crowding and noise
• Activities to meet a variety of sensory needs
• Hands-on art activities for all developmental levels
• On-hand support of skilled and friendly volunteers
• Sensory regulation resources such as fidgets, noise-canceling headphones, sunglasses, and a sensory break area
• Sensory nature walk (weather-permitting)
This program welcomes participants of all ages and their families (grandparents, siblings, and others welcome!).
The event is scheduled from 9:00-11:00 a.m., with two arrival timeslots to spread out the number of people in the galleries. Choose your timeslot here:
