Sensory Friendly Sundays 2019

In December, join local artist Roman Feldhahn in the Art Lab to create containers made from clay that are inspired by ceramics featured in the exhibition Theaster Gates: Assembly Hall. Then visit the galleries to talk with a Walker educator about the art on view made from everyday objects.

Sensory Friendly Sundays continue in 2020. Click here for more details and to register.

Sensory Friendly Sunday is a monthly event designed for kids, teens, and adults with sensory processing differences, autism spectrum disorder, or developmental disabilities. The galleries will be closed to the general public, allowing visitors to enjoy the museum in a calm environment with accommodations such as quiet spaces, noise-reduction headphones, and sunglasses available. Experience the Walker’s exhibitions, participate in a new art-making activity, or watch a short film.

While walk-ins are welcome, we encourage you to reserve your space ahead of time. Registration is available below.

To prepare for your visit, check out the Social Narrative. For more information, email access@walkerart.org or call 612-375-7610. This program was created in consultation with the Autism Society of Minnesota (AuSM) and the University of Minnesota’s Occupational Therapy Program.

This project is made possible in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services
