A donation from Danvers Ford and a grant from the Danvers Cultural Council are sponsoring the day.

"Access is a fundamental part of the North Shore Children's Museum's mission," North Shore Children's Museum Executive Director Ali Haydock said. "Donations like this one help subsidize the many discounted admission programs that the museum offers."
