This week on State of Art we’re learning about the Sensory-friendly and Access Mornings at the Anchorage Museum. Once a month during the museum’s winter hours, one exhibit is open and modified to accommodate people with sensory-sensitivities. Multi-media presentations might be turned down or off, lights dimmed and activities are provided as an alternate means of engaging with the museum.
