Join us for a free morning or afternoon event specifically designed for children and young people with autism spectrum conditions or sensory processing differences. The event offers children and young people the opportunity to visit the museum without the distraction of other visitors, accompanied by their families, carers or friends. Throughout each session there will be drop-in cartoon workshops with our cartoonist Steve Marchant, as well as a self-led trail of the museum – or you can just use the time to explore the museum at your own pace.

We cannot be responsible for any attendees. However, if there are any access requirements you would like us to know about or discuss, as well as any questions you may have, please email learning@cartoonmuseum.org and our Learning and Outreach Officer, Steve, will be happy to talk through everything.

If you have booked tickets, we will email you our accessibility information ahead of the visit, including: Visual Story of the day, exhibition videos along with accessible descriptions, sensory descriptions of the museum, and the best accessible routes to get to the museum using public transport.
