The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University: Sensory Friendly Mornings

Hosted by The Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University

Sensory-friendly mornings can be a comfortable, calmer way for museum visitors, especially those with sensory sensitivities, to explore the museum.

These mornings include:

• Advanced ticketing to help avoid lines
• Smaller crowds
• More tranquil sounds in exhibitions whenever possible, with soundscapes and roaring dinosaurs softened or turned off
• An available quiet and relaxing space
• Time to explore our signature and special exhibits and wander through the dioramas at your own pace
• Noise-cancelling headphones and fidget toys available for guests
• Understanding, empathetic staff ready to help and share science with you!

Founded in 1812, the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University is a leading natural history museum dedicated to understanding the natural world and inspiring everyone to care for it.
