Fair adds sensory-friendly hour and special populations programming
Summary
Fair manager Todd Miller said organizers added a sensory-friendly hour (2'4 p.m. on Sept. 29) with reduced lights and sound and will continue longstanding special populations and senior-program partnerships with Cobb County.
Organizers of the North Georgia State Fair said they are expanding accessibility offerings this year, including a sensory-friendly hour and continued special populations programming.
"We're adding a sensory friendly hour from 2 to 4," Todd Miller said, explaining that during that period the midway will be open with reduced lights and music to accommodate families with children who have sensory needs. Miller also described a special populations day and partnership work with county programs to provide calmer attractions and timing.
The fair will also host a senior citizens day during which visitors aged 55 and older receive free admission for a morning program that includes bingo and slower-paced booths coordinated with Cobb Senior Services.
