tips for a great trip

A typical visit is 1-3 hours. Give yourself plenty of time to explore.

Our exhibits are designed for children, newborn to age 8.

You can leave and come back the same day. Just let the front desk know you plan to return.

Store what you don’t want to carry. Lockers are 50 cents. Cubbies are free, but don’t lock.

Visiting Joy Park? It may be chilly! Come prepared with a coat, mittens, boots and a change of clothes. Please note: Joy Park (or any of it's components) may close due to inclement weather or unsafe conditions at the discretion of the Museum for the safety of our guests and staff.

Pets are not allowed in the Museum, including Joy Park. Service dogs are always welcome.
