The museum's exhibits stay open with smaller crowds and reduced sensory stimulation, and the night adds hands-on STEAM activities on a holiday party theme. Staff keep the environment calm so children can explore at their own pace. It runs 6 to 8 pm and is free, but the museum requires each family to register in advance through its Blackbaud ticketing page. ## Similar picks in Nashville - [All Access Night: Sensory-Friendly Evening at the Discovery Center](https://grassyknees.com/nashville/activities/all-access-night-sensory-friendly-evening-at-the-discovery-center--listing-5a5fb4e52f4996b65e4b02c7) — Thu, Nov 12 (+1 more date) · 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM · Discovery Center at Murfree Spring, Murfreesboro · Free · sensory-friendly · checked Oct 24.
