Low Sensory Sunday Hours at the Family Interactive Gallery
Join us in Whatcom Museum's Family Interactive Gallery (FIG) on Sunday, March 24, for special hours reserved for children with sensory processing and autism spectrum needs. On Low Sensory Sundays, the FIG opens early at 10 a.m. to offer a dedicated time reserved for children who require a quieter environment to focus, explore, and make art.
During Low Sensory Sunday hours (10 - 11:30 a.m.), the FIG installs moveable walls to create focused areas for children to explore. Lights and sounds are turned low, and tools such as gloves, activity cue cards, timers, and headphones are provided. (These tools are also available every day at the front desk at both of the museum’s buildings – the Lightcatcher and Old City Hall – for people to use any time.) Activities are child-led, and knowledgeable staff are on hand to help. This is a judgment-free space for children and families to connect and make art!
The FIG opens to all guests and visitors at noon on Sundays.
Low Sensory Sundays are free to attend, and registration is appreciated but not required. Learn more at: https://www.whatcommuseum.org/explore/family-interactive-gallery/low-sensory-sundays/
