Sensory Friendly Saturday | Bell Museum

This monthly series provides a welcoming and accessible environment for individuals, families, and children who have sensory sensitivities. Experience the Bell Museum’s Minnesota Journeys gallery, temporary exhibits, the Touch & See Lab, and a brief planetarium show at 8:45 am—all with lowered lighting, quieter sounds, and fewer visitors.

Any member of the public who can benefit from this environment is welcome to attend.

Sensory-friendly resources
Visitors are welcome to check out additional resources like the quiet spaces, visual timers, weighted lap pads, and hearing protection if it helps make the visit more enjoyable. Read more about the museum’s other accessibility resources: bellmuseum.umn.edu/access

This is an in-person event at the Bell Museum and is included in the cost of regular admission.
