The museum partners with Philly Touch Tours, which coordinates cultural and historical tours for blind and low-vision guests, to provide gallery tours of ancient Egyptian and ancient Roman artifacts. Self-guided experiences called “Tactile Trips Around the World” are offered throughout the year. The museum works with the Penn Memory Center for adults with dementia and their families. The exceptional education staff leads sensory-friendly “Evening Expeditions” for children ages eight and up and homeschool family days. Both offer multisensory explorations of galleries and hands-on activities. 3260 South Street, (215) 898-4000
