Two special experiences. One exciting morning.
Join us Saturday, June 6, from 9–10 AM for Sensory Day and a Member Preview of The Animation Academy!
🧩 Sensory Day
Sensory sensitive and special needs guests can enjoy Hands-On Hall, Curiosity Factory, and Wharf of Wonder with reduced sound levels, lower lighting, sensory-friendly science demos, and a low-volume showing of Superpower Dogs at 10:20.
During Sensory Day hours, guests of all ages are welcome in Wharf of Wonder.
(The Animation Academy and Tiny Titans exhibit will be available to all at 10 AM due to our Member Preview event coinciding with Sensory Day.)
🎬 Member Preview: The Animation Academy
Exploreum members can get a first look at our newest exhibit, The Animation Academy, before it opens to all guests. Members can also enjoy a free film of their choice, Superpower Dogs or Space: The New Frontier, all day long.
