Explore. Discover. Feel Comfortable.
Sensory-Friendly Day invites families to experience Connecticut Science Center in a calmer, more comfortable environment. Through thoughtful environmental adjustments and a supportive atmosphere, we aim to reduce sensory barriers and create space for exploration, comfort, and choice. Whether you’re visiting with family, friends, or on your own, you’re welcome to engage with science in the way that feels right for you.
What to Expect
- Reduced sound levels in exhibits and common spaces
- Adjusted lighting where possible, including reduced flashing or strobing effects
- Quiet spaces available for rest, regulation, or downtime
- Flexible exploration where visitors are welcome to move freely, skip exhibits, or revisit favorites
- Supportive staff prepared to help create a welcoming experience
Who It’s For
Open to anyone who may benefit from a less stimulating environment, including individuals with sensory sensitivities, neurodivergent visitors, families seeking a calmer Science Center experience, and anyone who prefers a quieter, more relaxed way to explore.
