- Sensory regulation tools, such as fidgets, noise-cancelling headphones, sunglasses, and a break area
This program welcomes participants of all ages and their families (siblings welcome!). To ensure a safe and enjoyable visit for all, this year’s program will have a limited capacity and timed admission.
