Sensory Friendly Day
At the Connecticut Science Center, we believe everyone deserves an engaging and inclusive experience. That’s why we’ve created Sensory Friendly Days, designed for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and sensory processing differences. We lower the volume, dim the lights, and minimize extra sound or motion throughout the facility. Additional signage highlights potential sensory triggers, and a 1:1 aide is always included with any paid General Admission. These thoughtful accommodations ensure everyone can explore our exciting exhibits in a calm, welcoming environment. Join us and make lasting memories in a space designed with you in mind.
