Family Explorer Evening
- Friday 10 January 2025, 18:30-20:00
Explore the Museum at a quieter time
Join us for a free Family Explorer event especially for our visitors with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities, including Autistic Spectrum Disorder.
This is a safe space to explore and enjoy the Museum in a more relaxed setting, free
from the general public, with many of the gallery sounds turned off. This special time offers a calm opportunity to explore our All Aboard family spaces and exhibition spaces in peace. Get hands-on with genuine parts of transport history, or make use of our sensory bags to support exploring the collection.
What's happening?
Sensory Space
Transportorium
Take this time to enjoy the Museum at your own pace, with the sounds turned off but if you need to take some time to relax, feel free to do so in our Sensory Space. With fidget toys and bespoke stimming board made exclusively for the Museum, you can play and explore in a safe environment. Please note that the sensory space is different to our quiet area, and some of the resources do make noise.
Quiet Space
Luke’s Skills Space and Prayer Room
If at any point you or a member of your family needs to take a moment of quiet to self regulate, please do feel free to make use of our quiet spaces. They are located at on the first floor by the All Aboard Play area, and on the ground floor by the toilets.
