MUSKEGON, Mich. — Families whose children have ASD or sensory disorders, are invited to attend a special sensory event on Saturday, January 18.

This is a free event where a variety of accommodations have been put into place to create an inclusive, welcoming, and safe place for the children and families. Families can visit the museum’s exhibits, work on a craft, and have the option to visit the quiet area to relax and unwind.

Sensory bags with items like noise canceling headphones, visors, and fidget toys will also be available for families to check out.
