Sensory Friendly Family Nights


Sensory Friendly Family Nights at the Louisiana Children’s Museum 


Sensory Friendly Family nights have been created to provide a safe, enjoyable experience of the museum for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and a positive environment where parents and siblings can feel comfortable and welcome.   Sensory Friendly Family Nights are free of charge for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and their families, and are held after museum hours in order to provide children with autism full access to all exhibits and materials.  These events are two hours and include an art activity facilitated by a Registered Art Therapist, free exploration of the museum and availability of TCARD (Tulane Center for Autism and Related Disorders) staff for parents who may have questions or concerns about their children.  Quiet spaces are available in the Theatre on the first floor and the birthday party rooms on the top floor.
