Sensory Friendly Sunday November

Experience a selection of current exhibitions, make art, or watch a short film. From 8–11 am, the galleries will be closed to the general public, allowing people of all ages with sensory processing differences, autism, or developmental disabilities to enjoy the museum in a calm environment with quiet spaces, fidgets, sunglasses, and other accommodations available. All friends and family members are welcome.
To support the health and safety of visitors at increased risk for COVID-19, masks are required at Sensory Friendly Sunday for visitors over age 2. Accommodations are available if someone in your party is unable to tolerate masking. Please email [email protected] or call 612-375-7561 for more information.
