Chaperone Guide

Payment

Group admission is due in a single payment one week before your visit. Membership does not count toward group visits.

Cancellation

Group Visit cancellations must be made and confirmed two weeks in advance or 50% of the full amount due will be charged.

Siblings

Due to safety and supervision requirements, siblings are not permitted on field trips. Adults supervising children outside the group are not considered chaperones. Siblings and adults outside the group must pay full price admission.

Safety

Adult chaperones are responsible for the supervision and safety of children at all times during your visit. If you need help with safety during your visit, talk to any staff member on the museum floor. Basic first aid supplies are available at the front desk. No adults are allowed in the Museum without children, and no children are allowed without adults.

Group Entrance

Upon arrival at your scheduled time, please bring your group to the designated Group Entrance on the east side of the Museum. A Museum staffer will be there to greet you.

Lunch

We do not have indoor facilities for lunch, even in case of inclement weather. Outdoor benches and grassy areas available in Gates Crescent Park on a first-come, first-served basis.
