GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Having a night out as a family can be difficult for those whose loved ones with sensory needs.
That's why— in celebration of Autism Awareness Month— Hope Network is working with the Grand Rapids Public Museum to turn their whole space into a special exhibit.
It's part of Hope Network's rally for inclusiveness; the Bridge Walk for Autism.
Thursday, April 20th families are invited to the Blue Bridge in Grand Rapids. Check-in for the walk is at 4 p.m., followed by a 15-minute program at 5, and then a walk across the bridge to the museum.
Then, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., lights, sounds, and activities at GRPM will be adapted to create a low-sensory experience. Even in the planetarium and carousel!
You must pre-register for both events, though.
