The children’s museum’s community partners, who specialize in supporting the neurodiverse community will be on-hand to enrich your family’s play experience with welcoming smiles and practical support. Specifically, for families with children of all ages from the neurodiverse community and with other disabilities. Pretend City will be closed to the public.
