Sensory Friendly Ride @ The Historic Carousel & Museum, Albany, OR | Albany | Oregon | United States

Join the Albany Carousel for a sensory-friendly ride!

To provide a more accepting and comfortable setting for individuals on the autism spectrum or with sensory sensitivities and their families, we will slow the carousel down to a jog and turn off the organ music.

It’s our hope to provide a fun and inviting space for everyone. So put on your blue and join us!
