Join us for our FREE Sensory-Friendly Sunday events!

These events are geared towards families with children of all ages who want to explore science and astronomy and may benefit from an environment where our theater is not quite so dark, the music is not quite so loud, and visitors can freely explore our planetarium, fun activities, exciting exhibits, and spectacular shows at their own pace, in their own way.
