Autism-Friendly Things to Do in Dallas, Texas

Dallas is quietly one of the better big cities for autism-friendly outings, thanks to a coalition of museums, theaters, and attractions that run dedicated sensory days. Most are scheduled events rather than everyday accommodations, so a little calendar-watching goes a long way.
