At the Please Touch Museum, their Play Without Boundaries is a 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.

Our ableFamilies Ambassador, Caitlin will begin with a brief reading of No, David! to create a calm, welcoming transition as families arrive. Children can then enjoy open free play with full access to the sensory gym area reserved only for our group. This private event provides your kiddo the opportunity to explore at their own comfort level. While kids play, parents and caregivers can relax, connect, and socialize in a supportive, low‑stress environment. Chips, applesauce, and beverages will be provided at no cost!
