Holidays, School Breaks, and Special Hours
MCM often has alternative schedules around holidays and school breaka for MMSD and other local districts. We recommend reserving advance tickets to guarantee entry during busier seasons, such as holidays and school breaks.
Weather Closures
The museum will close during extreme weather conditions, including days when travel is deemed risky for visitors and staff.
If the Madison Metropolitan School District closes due to the weather we also will close.
We may also close or delay the opening of sections of the museum (such as our outdoor spaces) due to weather conditions.
To confirm if the museum is open or closed, visit our website’s homepage or Facebook page.
