June 21, 2025(1 event) Morning at the Museum - NPM – Morning at the Museum (MATM) is a free, sensory-friendly program for children, teenagers, and young adults who are neurodivergent and their families in which they can visit a Smithsonian museum prior to opening on designated Saturday or Sunday mornings. Monthly programs rotate between Smithsonian museums. Registration is required. Pre-registered families visit one Smithsonian museum before it opens to the public, where they can participate in activities or explore the exhibitions independently at their own pace. Prior to each program, pre-registered families receive “pre-visit” materials to help them prepare for their visit including social narratives, sensory maps, visual schedules, and tip sheets. Similar pre-visit materials are available to help families plan for visits that take place outside of MATM program hours. These pre-visit materials can be found in the “Resources” section of the Office of Visitor Accessibility website. To learn more about Morning at the Museum or to sign up for the mailing list, please email us at access@si.edu. Smithsonian National Postal Museum |
