Tonight’s Program: Harmonize! Jam with us at 5:30pm and again at 6:30pm. A music therapist will be on site to play and perform with you.

Come join in all the fun and explore the accessible Discovery Museum and Discovery Woods during this special evening event just for families with members on the autism spectrum. Your family can play, explore, experiment, and imagine together, while we are closed to the general public and headcount is limited.

Resources available to prepare for your visit include Story Guides to the Museum and Discovery Woods, as well a Sensory Guide. These are available both online and at our Admissions Desk. You might also visit the Exhibits section of our website, and review our Tips for Visiting. Please note that Discovery Woods is open year-round, but closes at dusk and will not be open for evening events during the winter months.

Dinner, including a gluten-free option, is provided courtesy of Not Your Average Joe's, Acton. Thank you!

This Especially for Me program is offered in collaboration with Autism Alliance of MetroWest.
