Sensory Sunday: Eerie Eola

Sunday, October 20, 2024, Noon – 4 p.m.

Explore the histories and mysteries of sinkholes, spooky happenings, and more related to downtown’s iconic Lake Eola. Hands-on activities will help us learn why this centerpiece of Orlando’s landscape is both enchanting and a little bit haunting!

During Sensory Sunday we aim to provide a welcoming and comfortable experience for guests with autism spectrum disorder and sensory processing sensitivity. To do this we have adopted some basic accommodations, including access to a social narrative to help plan your visit, lowered or muted audio in exhibits, and limited use of flashing or moving lights. We also provide access to noise-reducing earmuffs, fidget/sensory toys, and a quiet space to utilize during your visit. Additionally, the History Center has created a variety of sensory-friendly activities available throughout the museum to engage a wide variety of guests with hands-on history learning.

Presented in partnership with Autism Society of Greater Orlando. Free admission on Sensory Sundays for ASGO members.
