Experience the Hastings Museum in a welcoming, sensory-friendly environment during Sensory Night on Saturday, July 11, from 5:00–7:00 pm, in partnership with Kids & Dreams Foundation!

There will be special sensory-friendly accommodations available during the evening event. Everyone is welcome, and all ages are encouraged to attend.
Throughout the event, guests can enjoy sensory-friendly maps, social narratives, sensory schedules, Then/Now storyboards, noise-reducing headphones, and sensory bags (available on a first-come, first-served basis). Select background exhibit sounds will be turned off to create a more comfortable experience.
The Kids & Dreams Foundation will cover admission for the first 75 participants who register through the foundation. To reserve your spot, email aaron@kidsanddreams.org.
Museum Members receive free admission as part of their membership, and standard admission rates apply to all other guests. Museum films will continue on their regular schedule and are not part of the event.
