Resources for Guests With Sensory Needs

Our objective is to provide an inclusive and seamless experience for all guests including those with sensory needs. 

Sign Language Interpreter Glow-in-the-Dark Hands

To accommodate our hearing impaired guests, we provide glow-in-the-dark gloves for guests who are accompanied by a sign language interpreter. Please notify us when you arrive so we have time to 'photo-charge' the gloves.

Show Captioning for fulldome presentations

We are also adding captioning to our full-dome presentations.  "Black Holes: The Other Side of Infinity" was our first captioned show.  We're working on adding captioning to our remaining fulldome presentations.  Let our staff know when you'll be attending and for which show and we'll do our best to have the captioning ready when you arrive.
