On Wednesdays from 10 a.m to 1 p.m., the fair has implemented programming to make it easier for visitors with sensory issues to avoid getting overstimulated.

“We’ve already curated an experience, but the fair is yours to wander and explore, so there are so many different things folks can do on these mornings,” Austin said.
