HUNTINGTON The Huntington Children’s Museum, which opened in July 2024, plans to add an inclusive outdoor Sensory Garden, thanks to recently receiving a $50,000 T-Mobile Hometown Grant.
Features of the new Sensory Garden, which the Children’s Museum hopes to open in May, will include tactile and fragrant plants, musical and sound-based elements, a fairy garden, wide pathways, raised beds, shaded sitting areas, an outdoor classroom space, quiet sensory-regulation areas and possibly a mural.
