💬 What Visitors Say

• 💬Plan for at least 3 hours of visit time as the museum is expansive with numerous indoor and outdoor play areas. Visitors report being able to stay even longer, so consider a full half-day outing.
• 🕐Visit during non-field trip times for a quieter, less crowded experience that allows kids more space to explore and play comfortably.
• 💬Take advantage of First Friday events (4-8 pm monthly) for discounted admission and free parking if attending Arts Walk, plus extended evening hours.
• 💡The craft room is a major highlight where children can create and take their work home; the museum provides a drying/storage space, so plan time for creative projects and bring a bag for finished items.
• 💡Families with toddlers should prioritize the dedicated toddler area and play areas designed for younger children, as the museum caters well to multiple age groups.
