Quiet Mornings at Tellus is an exclusive event for individuals with different sensory processing skills and their families to have a fun, enjoyable and interactive learning experience in a comfortable and accepting environment. Lighting is normalized, and our various monitors are not turned on. This sensory-friendly event will offer a conscious effort to eliminate extra stimuli. These exclusive mornings include:

• Less crowded environment
• Reduced wait times
• Less extreme light and sound reduction
• Designated “Quiet Spaces” located at the back of the theater and in the orientation theater (no movie will be playing during this time period)
• Name tags with contact information for children
• Additional directional signage
• FREE planetarium experience, which will have an open-door policy while showing looping videos of beautiful space images accompanied by soft classical music in an ambient light environment

Our Autism Response Team (ART) is specially trained to connect people with autism, their families, and caretakers to information, tools, and resources.
