Admission

Free admission, all visitors welcome. A $5 donation per person is suggested, whether visiting the exhibits or attending a program.

Use & Accessibility

The all exhibits and facilities on the first floor of the Museum are handicapped accessible. Due to the historic nature of the building, modifications like elevator and extra railings cannot be added and unfortunately this make our smaller, second floor exhibits and the third floor cupola inaccessible to some guests. We are working on plans to show video of those portions on the first floor.

Rules

  • Service animals are allowed in the Museum, but pets are not. They are welcome in our grassy courtyard where a doggie bag station is provided.
  • We ask also that guests check food, beverages, backpacks, and large bags at the front desk.
  • Photography is generally allowed with no flash, to tripod, and no selfie-stick. Exhibits where photography is not allowed will be marked. Videos or images taken for commercial use need to receive prior approval by the Director
