Join us for a sensory friendly Museum experience for visitors of all ages and abilities. Sensory Friendly Hours at the Museum of the Earth provides an opportunity for visitors with Sensory Processing Disorder, or other developmental disabilities to enjoy a more sensory-friendly experience at the Museum. These hours will take place quarterly on June 16, September 15, and December 15.www.priweb.org/event/sensory-friendly-hours
Support for Sensory Friendly Hours at the Museum of the Earth is generously provided by the Community Foundation of Tompkins County.
Some of our exhibits, those that may be loud or bright, may be off from the hours of 8:30am to 10am.
Our classroom will be a designated quiet space. The lights will be off, there will be a few tables for coloring/drawing, texture bins, or just sitting and enjoying the space. Bean bags and pillows available for use. Soft music will be optional (Separate quiet space by glacial exhibit).
Sensory Packs/gear available at request from the front desk, supplies are limited and will need to be returned either at the end of your stay, or after a specific time limit.
All exhibits will be turned on at 10AM. Everyone is welcome to stay, but do so at your own discretion.
