April 2 @ 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
In recognition of the 16th annual World Autism Awareness Day, our Abe for All series will offer a Sensory Friendly Evening on Tuesday, April 2.
During this special event from 4pm-6pm, we invite our guests to enjoy free admission and a sensory-friendly experience. Our theater and Journey lights will be turned up, and the sound turned down. Some special effects will be turned off. A quiet room will be provided.
Advance registration is not required. We have developed a pre-visit preparation packet that ranks areas of the museum based on their potential to overstimulate. This can be found in the “Plan Your Visit” section of our website or email [email protected] and request a packet.
We are committed to providing an inclusive experience for all and if there are other things we can do to ensure a more welcoming experience, please let us know. You can reach us 9am – 5pm daily by calling 217-558-8844 (TTY/TDD 1-888-440-9009) or email [email protected]
