The Science Center is known for its hands-on STEM learning experiences, but we know that some of our exhibits can be overwhelming for those with special sensory needs. We offer Sensory Friendly Science Time on Sundays from 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM.

The entire building will be open, but the following accommodations will be in place:

  • The T-Rex roar will be turned off and the ball machine in the main lobby will be off until 11:30 AM.
  • The 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM OMNIMAX® shows will feature sensory-friendly adjustments, such as reduced volume and enhanced lighting. All are welcome!
  • The Energy Stage Show at 11:15 AM will be much quieter.

Explore the Wonder of Why in a quieter setting on Sundays!

Check the Field Trip Forecast to see when field trips are scheduled.

The Field Trip Forecast lets you know when you are more likely to enjoy the Science Center with groups. If you prefer a quieter museum experience, we recommend planning your visit for times when the number of groups are lower or after 1pm on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday.
