Autism-friendly tours run on the first Sunday of each month at 9:15am. Visitors are welcome to call to arrange a different day or time. On this tour, we reduce sound and lighting stimulants and go at the pace of the group who book on. We liaise prior to the visit to make any necessary accommodations.
