Montshh… Montshire Sensory Hour
Join us for Montshire Sensory Friendly Hours. This is a time for families to enjoy a less-crowded visit and may be appealing to individuals who have sensory processing differences. Admission is free. There will be reduced lights and sounds from select exhibits, a quiet respite space, sensory kits to borrow with noise-cancelling headphones and other supplies, and a sensory map.
Pre-registration is appreciated but not required.
