• Groups must bring no less than one adult chaperone for every 5 students when visiting the museum.
• Classroom, Classroom Plus, School, and School Plus members must make a reservation at least 1 week in advance of any museum visit, to ensure adequate staffing and availability. Please use the reservation request form to book your group visit reservation. Visit dates are not guaranteed. Childcare members are not required to make advance reservations.

Group Memberships and associated benefits/passes only apply for an entity’s employees, NOT library patrons or the public. We welcome libraries to share more information with their patrons about our Access for Everyone programs to learn about reduced price admissions.

Currently, our other membership policies do not provide memberships for libraries to purchase for their patrons to use. If patrons are interested in visiting the museum, we have personal/individual memberships at various levels including our Access for Everyone program starting as low as $15 for the year
