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? Dress for the weather. It may be cold or wet. Bring a warm coat, a change of clothes and extra socks. Please note: The water is off for the season.

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