🎨 🕊️ Join us for a sensory-friendly morning of artmaking and art exploration. This sensory-friendly program offers a welcoming, low-stimulation environment for visitors of all ages and abilities. Lighting and sound are adjusted, and participants are invited to move, rest, and engage at their own pace. Artmaking activities provide options for quiet focus, tactile exploration, and creative expression. Sensory supports—including fidgets, flexible seating, and a calm space—are available throughout. All are welcome, including neurodivergent visitors, individuals with disabilities, and anyone seeking a more relaxed museum experience.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
