About the Event

Join us for Sensory Friendly Morning and join Bodies of Work and Hubbard Street Dance Company with art making activities and movement exercises for all bodies and abilities.

Sensory-Friendly Morning is a free program for all people who benefit from visiting the MCA without large crowds and other sensitive environmental elements. This includes visitors with sensory sensitivities, disabilities, autism, PTSD, dementia, and more. On these mornings, lighting at the museum is dimmed, sounds from artworks and environmental noise is kept at a minimum, and a quiet space is available to visitors for breaks. During Sensory-Friendly Mornings, preregistered individuals and their families can visit the museum to explore exhibitions at their own pace.

Sensory-Friendly Morning aims to be a welcoming space to experience contemporary art in a judgment-free environment.
