The Walker Art Center has joined other museums and venues by adding some Sensory Friendly Sunday Events. Sensory Friendly Sunday, held on the second Sunday of each month, is a free event for kids, teens, and adults with sensory processing differences, autism spectrum disorder, or developmental disabilities.
From 8 am to 11 am on the second Sunday of the month, the galleries will be closed to the general public, allowing visitors to enjoy the museum in a calm environment with accommodations such as quiet spaces, fidgets, and sunglasses available.
Admission is free, but you do need to register in advance for a specific time slot.
