Sensory-Friendly Sunday

Join the Norton Museum of Art on Sunday, November 9, from 10 am to 1 pm for a morning of fun! Enjoy art, music, games, crafts, and a quiet space. 

Sensory Friendly Sundays are designed for children, teens, and young adults with disabilities, ASD, neurodiversity, and anyone with sensory processing differences.

The Museum will be open from 10 – 11 am, exclusively for those with sensory needs and their families, providing a calm, supportive environment for free. Visitors are welcome to stay and continue activities once the Museum opens to the public at 11 am.

Activities include:

  • Interactive music with Miss Patty Shukla
  • Sensory-friendly art-making
  • Outdoor games
  • A quiet room featuring sensory toys and lights
  • An augmented reality art iPad experience, I Spy, Norton Art+, and more!

Space is limited; online registration required and opens one month in advance.

This is a FREE program.
