Discover a special sanctuary designed with sensitivity and understanding. Our dedicated Sensory Room offers a tranquil retreat for anyone needing a moment of calm during their museum adventure.

Understanding that one in six individuals in the U.S. has sensory processing needs, we've created this thoughtfully designed space where children and adults alike can take essential breaks to recharge, reset, and find their center.

Step into a gentle environment specifically created to soothe the senses. With soft lighting, comfortable seating, and peaceful surroundings, this quiet room provides the perfect respite from the excitement and stimulation of other museum activities.

The Sensory Room serves as a supportive space for families navigating sensory sensitivities, allowing everyone to enjoy the museum experience at their own pace. Take the time you need before returning to explore more exhibits, or simply use this space as a calming conclusion to your visit.

Our commitment to inclusive play means creating environments where all visitors feel welcome and supported. The Sensory Room reflects our dedication to making memorable museum experiences accessible to every family.
