Field Trips

Shows scheduled at the museum are free of charge. Teachers are requested to fill out a feedback form after viewing a show. All shows start fifteen minutes after the hour and usually last 30-45 minutes. It is important that your group shows up on-time. For shows held at the museum, there is a limit of 200 students per group.

Parking is available for buses in the Marriott Center parking lot (north of the museum). Before parking, buses may drop-off students in front of the museum (on the south side).

When you arrive at the museum, check-in with the museum store employee and they will notify the museum Educator of your arrival. They will also direct you to the center atrium or auditorium for your show.

Food is not allowed inside the museum- the museum’s collections are extremely vulnerable to certain kinds of pests. These pests thrive on small pieces of food, therefore, in order to protect our collections, we ask that our patrons do not bring any food into the museum. Groups can eat their lunch on the lawn east of the museum.
