How to Book a K–12 Field Trip
To lock in your reservation, a non-refundable $5 registration fee is required. This small fee guarantees your spot, but does not cover admission—don’t worry, you’ll receive a separate email with all the details to complete your group’s payment.
All fees must be paid at least 10 days before your visit through our Education Department—payment and group rates are not accepted at the ticket window.
Your reservation timeframe will show as 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., but our actual hours may vary by season. Be sure to check our Museum Hours before your visit so you can make the most of your day!
