Sensory Sunday: Spooky Senses

Sunday, October 19, 2025, Noon – 4 p.m.


Take your senses on a wild ride as you explore all the creepy crawly, ooey gooey, squishy mushy activities offered at this sensory-friendly Halloween celebration! Bring your costumes and candy bags as you enjoy trick-or-treating throughout the museum.

During Sensory Sundays at the History Center, we aim to provide a welcoming and comfortable experience for guests with autism spectrum disorder and sensory processing sensitivity. To do this we have adopted some basic accommodations, including access to a social narrative to help plan your visit, lowered or muted audio in exhibits, and limited use of flashing or moving lights. We also provide access to noise-reducing earmuffs, fidget/sensory toys, and a quiet space to utilize during your visit. Additionally, we have created a variety of sensory-friendly activities available throughout the museum to engage a wide variety of guests with hands-on history learning.
