A Wrinkle in Time
A Wrinkle in Time
Accommodative Screening
Director Ava DuVernay took a dramatic turn from the serious subject matter of her acclaimed films Selma (2014) and 13th (2016) with this visually imaginative adaptation of Madeleine L’Engle’s perennially popular, Newbery Medal-winning fantasy novel, originally published in 1962. Storm Reid plays Meg Murry, a 13-year-old girl who sets off on a fantastical journey to find her missing father, with the help of three astral beings portrayed by Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, and Mindy Kaling.
On the last Saturday of every month, the museum's Family Matinee is an accommodative screening where we offer open captioning, keep the theater dimly lit, and maintain a lower volume specifically for neurodivergent viewers.
