Sensory-Friendly Saturday: Celebrating Seasons

Sensory-Friendly Saturday: Celebrating Seasons

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, and sunglasses
  • Sensory break areas 
     

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.
