Sensory Friendly Morning at The Hershey Story

Tickets available for purchase at the front desk the day of the event, or in advance online.

Guests with Autism Spectrum Disorder and other sensory-related sensitivities, and their families and caregivers, are invited to a morning of chocolate fun at The Hershey Story. In addition to molding a chocolate bar, participants will experience what it was like to work in the factory at the turn of the 20th century by hand-wrapping and weighing Hershey’s Kisses, and sorting and packing chocolate bars. Additional hands-on activities will include tasting and grinding cocoa nibs, and touching real cocoa beans and cocoa pods.  Activities will take place in the classroom. A calming room will be available.  Museum Experience included.
