A sensory friendly experience at the Museum
Sensory Friendly Mornings is held quarterly on select Saturdays from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m. This program is intended for families who would enjoy and appreciate a quieter Museum experience with fewer guests and less stimulation than our general museum hours offer.
Our interactive art installations vary from high-sensory activities to designated sensory-break zones that provide a range of experiences for families to enjoy with comfort and safety.
The Museum strives to be an inclusive and accessible space that celebrates neurodiversity and welcomes people of all needs and abilities. Learn more about our accessibility services at the Museum here.
The New Children's Museum
The New Children’s Museum celebrated the opening of its new home located in downtown San Diego’s Marina District with a free, community block party on May 4, 2008. The Museum, an environmentally sustainable building designed by architect Rob Wellington Quigley, provides a dynamic, playful public space and community center for children and families—a place to experience exciting art exhibitions, hands-on studio projects, performances, birthday parties, in-depth classes, camps and educational programs. Across the street from the new building is a beautiful park, extending the museum visit outdoors with space for running, climbing, family picnics and a view of the trains and trolley going by. Located at 200 West Island Avenue, the Museum faces Harbor Drive and is well-positioned near the MTS Convention Center Trolley stop, Seaport Village and the Gaslamp Quarter, making it easily reachable to residents and visitors throughout the region. Members Only Time: Sundays from 9:30-11 a.m.Admission Pricing Adults and children over 1: $14 Seniors (65+): $10 Military: $10 Children under 1: FREE Members: FREE
