This sensory-friendly program offers a welcoming, low-stimulation environment for visitors of all ages and abilities. Lighting and sound are adjusted, and participants are invited to move, rest, and engage at their own pace. Artmaking activities provide options for quiet focus, tactile exploration, and creative expression. Sensory supports—including fidgets, flexible seating, and a calm space—are available throughout. All are welcome, including neurodivergent visitors, individuals with disabilities, and anyone seeking a more relaxed museum experience. We offer a variety of accessibility supports to help ensure visitors can fully participate. Contact us at kam-accessibility@illinois.edu for questions or to request accommodation. Krannert Art Museum acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council. Official event details: https://calendars.illinois.edu/detail/7/33554839
