Families whose children have ASD, or sensory disorders, are invited to attend a special ASD sensory after-hours event! This is a FREE event where a variety of accommodations have been put into place to create an inclusive, welcoming, and safe place for the children and families. Families can visit the museum’s exhibits, work on a craft, and have the option to visit the quiet area to relax and unwind.
Sensory bags with items like noise-canceling headphones, visors, and fidget toys will also be available for families to check out. We will require accompanying adults to wear masks and families to social distance from other families. The capacity for this event is 10 individuals.
To register, contact [email protected], or call 231.724.5543.
Families can also click here to download a Sensory Story to read with their child before their visit.
