Experience the Children's Room and Teen Center with a low sensory environment for children, teens and their families.
In the Children's Room, children can browse the shelves for their new favorite story or find books on topics that interest them. Activities include: art tables, craft projects, scavenger hunts, LEGOs, dollhouses and games.
In the Teen Center*, teens can find the next book in the series they're reading, research for homework projects or discover a new favorite author. Activities include: the makerspace, foosball, ping pong and other games.
In addition to a calm space, sensory supports will be available on a first come, first served basis.
Good to know before you go:
From 12:30 pm - 1:45 pm, lighting will be dimmed and escalators and music will be off. At 1:45 pm, we will slowly turn up lighting and turn on escalators and music for regular service hours.
Only the Garden Level and the Garden Level entrance will be accessible during sensory friendly hours.
The closest parking is the lower parking lot located between Park and Washington Streets.
Metered street parking is free on Sundays.

*The Teen Center is designed for customers ages 12-18. Other customers are asked to limit their visiting to browsing the collection, dropping off or picking up a teen, or taking a tour of the space. Your cooperation allows us to keep the space teen-friendly and secure.
