Admission & Pricing
FREE!
** Pre-registration is required. Please register all people who are attending this program.
Join our jkidaccess community for a fun afternoon at the museum! To make the afternoon accessible for children with sensory sensitivity, the audio media at the museum will be turned to a low volume. We’ll meet at 3:00pm for a storytime and at 3:30pm for a hands-on, kid-friendly gallery walk. Craft activities and sensory toys will be available throughout the program. All ages are welcome!
Accommodations: Thanks to a generous grant from the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia, we are able to provide accommodations for any child or family member with a disability to attend jkidphilly events. If you need an accommodation such as an ASL interpreter, a sensory toolbox, or even behavior support for your child, or if you have questions about the accessibility of any program or venue, please note so on our form or contact us. In most cases, our staff will need two weeks’ notice to provide accommodations, but we will do our best to meet your needs on any timeframe.
For more information: contact Gabrielle Kaplan-Mayer or Suzanne Gold
Safety / Covid 19:
For our in-person events, we’ll work together to take care of our community. Non-cloth (n95, KN95, surgical) masks are suggested for children ages 2 years+ and adults.
Masking in the museum is recommended, not required.
