Sensory Friendly Visit

  • Pennsylvania Military Museum 51 Boal Avenue Boalsburg, PA, 16827 United States (map)

From April through October on select Wednesdays and Sundays, the Pennsylvania Military Museum invites individuals, families, and community members with special sensory needs or medical concerns, to visit the Museum during unique hours of operation that will have reduced attendance and effects, providing a more comfortable experience.  This date range is typically our busiest season, and therefore, the hardest for some to find visiting enjoyable.

Visitors will find background effects in the gallery turned off to avoid feelings of shock or surprise, and the orientation film’s sound reduced (captioning still utilized). 

Through advanced registration, visitors will ensure site staff are prepared for arrivals, and the site is ready to welcome guests at the Front Desk for check-in.

Wednesday and Sunday time slots for arrival are on the hour, 10AM to 3PM and 10AM to 12PM, respectively. Each time slot allows for one registrant, and permits up to 10 guests to accompany the registrant. Standard admission rates apply to all guests, payment accepted during check-in at the museum's front desk.
