Sensory Saturdays

December 9, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

The MFA welcomes families with children with sensory sensitivities to explore the galleries on the 2nd Saturday of every month, from 10 am to 12 pm. During this time, all rotating audio components will be turned down or muted to ensure a calm environment.

The MFA values accessibility and inclusiveness as we share art for the enjoyment of all in our community. All Museum facilities comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. See our Accessibility page for our accommodations, including our Sensory Guide to the MFA.

Free for members, through Museums for All, or with the cost of admission.

Sensory Saturdays is part of our Picture of Health initiative. Picture of Health is a comprehensive initiative that explores interconnected notions of well-being transcending geographical and temporal boundaries, leveraging the MFA Collection as a starting point. This program fosters a holistic investigation of health, encompassing cognitive, physical, physiological, emotional, civic, intellectual, and spiritual dimensions, all with the aim of nurturing a sense of wellness within our community.
