The Museum of Pop Culture
Seattle’s Museum of Pop Culture (MoPOP) offers Sensory-Friendly Programs, an opportunity for families to experience the museum with lowered volume and light levels. Anyone who can benefit from a low-sensory museum environment is welcome.
Attending these programs is free, but you must register in advance online. After registering, you will be sent a social story, map of the museum and timeline of the day to help explain what to expect during a Sensory-Friendly Program at MoPOP.
Cost and hours: Sensory-Friendly Programs are held about once a month when the museum is closed to the general public (often in the morning). Access to this program is free. Regular admission to the museum is $28.25 for adults; $19.75 for youth ages 5–12; children 4 and younger are free.
Location: 325 5th Ave. N., Seattle
