In the lead up to World Autism Acceptance Month, the South Australian Museum is opening our doors after hours to offer a quieter Museum experience on Friday 27 March, 5pm to 7pm.
We'll be turning some sensory elements off and limiting visitor numbers to create a quieter environment.
Addionally, there will be relaxed activities on offer, including the option to paint a fossil with Palaeo-artist Riley Foley, talk one-on-one with a Museum Palaeontologist, and explore the Discovery Centre.
Everyone is welcome. This is a special event for anyone who would prefer a quieter Museum visit with their friends, families and supporters.
Booking is required and spaces are limited. Tickets are FREE for concession, child and companion card holders and $5 for adults.
Please note that the cafe and shop will be closed for this event.
