Marie Selby Botanical Gardens is a safe, inclusive, and welcoming space for all members of our community. Tranquil Tuesday is a private, sensory-friendly, after-hours Selby Gardens experience, designed with neuro-inclusivity in mind. The Gardens will remain open for an extra hour to offer quiet exploration of our grounds — without the crowds or noise.
During this event, guests with sensory needs or sensitivities, their families, and caregivers will receive complimentary tickets to Selby Gardens! Upon arrival, guests receive a customized map with readily identified icons to indicate areas of the Gardens with interactivity (touch, smells, etc.) or displays that may be overstimulating (loud noises, strong odors, etc.).
Noise-cancelling earmuffs, sensory kits and wheelchairs are available on loan, free of charge. You are welcome to bring any stimming toys or comfort items to make your visit as enjoyable as possible.
