Families with children with sensory sensitivities are invited to explore the galleries at the Museum of Fine Arts during Sensory Saturday. Sensory fidgets, noise-canceling headphones, and regulating tools are available for visitors of all ages to borrow at the Visitor Services desk.
Also, join our Sensory Saturday Hands-On program for activities filled with sensory play, fine motor skill exploration, and artmaking. Experiment with non-toxic, sensory-friendly materials this month outside the museum under the Bombax Tree. Activities are generally geared towards ages 2-6. For a limited time, during the months of October and November, this program is FREE!
Sensory Saturdays occur on the first Saturday of every month.
