Sensory friendly museum
Friday, May 17, 8:30 a.m.
Monthly sensory friendly mornings begin at Shelburne Museum Friday, May 17, 8:30 a.m. These are early hours reserved for visitors of all ages with varying social and sensory-processing needs. “Know Before You Go” materials, limited numbers of noise-cancelling head-phones, fidget toys and a break room will be available for visitor use. It’s free but registration is required on the website or by calling 802-985-0924. Every month, May through October, the community is welcomed into the museum before regular opening hours to view special exhibitions at the Pizzagalli Center for Art and Education in a light-and-sound adjusted environment. Created in consultation with Inclusive Arts Vermont, this program for children, teens and adults is designed to offer a positive museum-going experience for visitors with varying sensory processing.
