Sensory-Friendly Saturday: Nature’s Palette
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. Families will have the opportunity to explore the Museum, discovering colors and abstractions of nature throughout the paintings in our galleries.
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
The event is scheduled from 9:00–10:30 a.m., with three arrival timeslots to spread out the number of people in the galleries. Choose your timeslot here:
