Greetings from your South Carolina State Museum! We hope everyone is doing well!
Please join us for this month’s Accessibility Morning activities on Saturday, September 14. Let us know if you'd like to join us and Cookie Mouse for this awesome event. We’d love to have you!
Check out the information below to find out more about the event and what we ask of you as a Community Resource Partner. As always, we'd love it if you could share this event with others, and let us know if there is anyone else we could be inviting to it!
Accessibility Morning Information: This inclusive program provides free access for families of children, teens, young adults, and adults who would benefit from a quieter, more sensory-friendly and disability adapted experience at the museum where they can explore at their own pace and enjoy the special activities.
ASL Interpretation will be provided by the SC School for the Deaf and Blind as noted in the schedule below. The museum also has several other accessibility tools available - just ask an educator upon your arrival!
The event is free, and guests are encouraged to pre-register as the FREE 9:45am show tickets can only be reserved on-site on the day of the event. There is no age limit, and you do not have to attend the activities. Guests are welcome to simply come and enjoy the museum.

· 8:45am Program Partners Arrive
· 9-10am Community Resource Partners present (1st Floor - Carolina Gallery)
· Please note: You're welcome to stay until 11am but we only advertise that you'll be there until 10am, so no pressure!

2. Be a presenting partner! We'd love to have you here sharing the amazing things your organization is doing! There is no fee to do so. We want this to be free to everyone and simply to be a good resource fair for our guests. It doesn't matter if you can only make it once a year or you come every month - just let us know when you'd like to reserve a table. We'd love to have you!
3. Don't have staff but have stuff? We do have a small table where we are able to place materials. Just bring by whatever you'd like us to put out and we'll be happy to share it!
Thank you for your support!
