Sunday, June 15th, 9:00 AM EST – ableFamilies Table | Play Without Boundaries – Philadelphia, PA

At the Please Touch Museum, we believe that access, whether physical, emotional, intellectual, or financial, is essential to our mission. All children benefit from learning through play, and we are proud to continue creating a safe, welcoming environment where every child can thrive.

Play Without Boundaries is our sensory-friendly event series designed specifically for individuals with autism, learning disabilities, and other sensory or communication needs. During these events, the Museum is closed to the general public for two hours and adjusted to create a more relaxed environment; lower lighting, reduced sound, and more space to play comfortably.

We’re excited to share that Mark from ableFamilies will be on-site with an information table, offering resources and support for families using AAC devices like the QuickTalker Freestyle. Stop by to connect and learn more about this amazing parent-led community.

We’re proud to support this incredible event and look forward to seeing you there!
