Accessibility

Sensory Nights are designed for children and their families who may have special needs, differently abled individuals, and those who have sensory sensitivities.
We understand that the museum can be a bustling place. During Sensory Friendly Night, we provide adjusted sound levels and limit attendance to create a calmer environment.
Sensory bags will also be available at the front desk.
Families can explore the museum at their own pace.
Sensory Night is held on the third Monday of each month from 4:00 – 5:30 p.m.
Sponsored Sensory Nights are Free; non-sponsored months are $5.
We hope to make this a free event in the future through sponsorships.

The Magic City Discovery Center is proud to be a part of Museum's for All, a signature access program of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), administered by the Association of Children's Museums (ACM), that encourages people of all backgrounds to visit museums regularly and build lifelong museum-going habits. The program supports those receiving food assistance (SNAP) benefits visiting Magic City Discovery Center for a minimal fee of $5 per person for up to 4 people, with the presentation of a SNAP Electronics Benefits Transfer (EBT) card. Museums for All is a part of the Magic City Discovery Center's broad commitment to seek, include, and welcome all audiences.
