ACCESSIBILITY AND ACCOMMODATION
Welcome to MOSI, where we are intent on creating an inclusive guest experience where everyone can participate in the excitement of science. Many of our exhibits offer multi-sensory interactive experiences. If you are concerned about too much sensory stimulation, ask a MOSI staff or volunteer about what you might expect while exploring the exhibits.
Our staff and volunteers have attended training and in-services related to disability awareness etiquette to help make your visit to MOSI an enjoyable one. Please contact a staff member or volunteer if there is something we can do to make your experience more meaningful or accessible. Download MOSI's Accessibility and Accommodation Manual.
The science center is wheelchair accessible. Closed Captioning available for select IMAX Dome Theatre films.
