Welcome! We have important updates to share. Please read.

The Museum is undergoing a major expansion and renovation project that will make our campus more accessible and welcoming to all. Due to construction during the 2024–25 school year, all regular permanent-collection galleries will be closed. Instead, we welcome you to visit these special exhibitions

Guided K-12 group visits are available Thursdays and Fridays at 10:15, 11:15, and 12:15  October 4 through December 20 except during Free First Thursdays each month and school holidays. Guided visits are interactive, student-centered experiences that include close looking, discussion, sketching, and more. Please see the FAQ for more information.

Self-Guided K-12 and College group visits are available through January 17, 2025.

Please submit all reservation requests at least two weeks in advance of the visit date.

K-12 students, teachers, chaperones, and aides receive FREE admission with advance registration. K-12 transportation reimbursement is available whenever these costs are a barrier to access. Please email your estimated costs to groups@pam.org.

College groups receive discounted admission of $5.00/student with advance registration, or free admission for College Student Pass holders.
