Sensory Friendly Evening
August 20 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Museums are for everyone! Join us for a sensory-friendly evening designed for anyone looking for a more relaxed museum experience, no matter their age or ability level, and their families.
At this free event sponsored by Festival Foods, you will have access to the Museum as well as an opportunity to take a sensory-friendly submarine tour. Loud exhibit sounds will be turned down and our Sensory Backpacks will be out! These backpacks include: visual schedules, weighted lap blankets, social narratives, headphones, fidgets and a communication book. Please note, these backpacks are free to check out anytime!
The Wisconsin Maritime Museum welcomes all people to connect with Wisconsin’s waterways. The Education Department is committed to providing inclusive and engaging experiences for visitors of all abilities.
