Third Thursday is a special time once each month when families of children with autism spectrum disorders, visual impairments, and/or mobility impairments come together to enjoy the Museum. This program is available the third Thursday of every month, from 5-7 p.m.

DCM is an ideal location for learning. Our exhibits offer ways to work on language development, social skills and purposeful play. Photo books are available to help visitors structure a visit.

Families are invited to come play, and utilize the augmentative communication devices available at our exhibits. A resource table is also available with community services displayed. Come play with other families! Normal admission prices apply. Free to DCM Members. The Museum is open at this time and everyone is welcome!

In addition, with support from Hinsdale Center for the Arts, The Association of Children's Museums and Very Special Arts (USA), DCM will be testing some new art activities on Third Thursday, for children who have visual or mobility impairments.
