Access Family Events
The Intrepid Museum offers monthly programs for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. These programs alternate between virtual and onsite programs, and take place on select Sundays during regular Museum hours. Families take a guided tour of the Museum and can participate in art-making activities that everyone can enjoy.
Early Morning Openings
The Intrepid Museum offers Early Morning Openings for children with autism and their families before the Museum opens to the public! Families receive a sensory bag with interactive activities designed for the whole family, and explore the Museum without the crowds! Participants receive a social narrative ahead of time.
Registration info: Free with advance registration. Registration typically opens one month in advance. If you have any questions, please contact access@intrepidmuseum.org.
Access programs at the Intrepid Museum are generously supported by The FAR Fund and the J.E. & Z.B. Butler Foundation. The Museum’s Access programs are supported, in part, by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, and the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
