Sundays?

As you probably know, at the beginning of October, we changed our hours. You may have seen our new signs, which say Monday-Saturday, 10-5, Sundays available for rental. Have you ever wondered what that means?

On Sundays, the museum is closed to the public. However, you can rent the space and have the whole museum to yourself to enjoy with your friends and family! The museum is a great space for a kid's birthday party and has also made for a fun graduation party, but the options are endless. A party at the Discovery Museum could bring out the kid in the honoree at retirement party or offer entertainment for all ages at a family reunion. Where else do you get to see teenage brothers playing trains together?

For Sunday rental, the rates are $100 per hour, with a minimum of 2 hours. There is a non-member fee of $25, and we are happy to do one of our party themes, with crafts, decorations, and activities, for an additional fee of $50. Depending on staff availability, a party can be scheduled at anytime on a Sunday.
