Service area

Jonesboro, AR
Sensory Cinema was developed to address a need for social outings for families living with disabilities in the Jonesboro area. Sensory Cinema movie offers dimmed lighting instead of a completely darkened theater, few if any previews to upcoming movies, lowered volume on surround sound so as not to overwhelm the senses and the best part: children and adults are not required to sit still for the movie experience. All have freedom to experience the Sensory Cinema in a way that best suits their individual need. Whether that's pacing the hallways, standing in the aisle, or sitting on the steps, all are accepted forms of participation.
