We have two lunch spaces for groups who bring their lunches. Each seats 30 people. The staff schedules lunch times for your field trip one week prior to your visit. Lunch is 20 minutes long and is based on arrival times and the number of students per arrival. That information will be emailed to all email addresses provided on this form.

In good weather we recommend eating lunch in our 200-seat outdoor amphitheater. There is a place to store lunches in the Education Center—please do not leave lunches in cars or buses. We recommend that you place your lunches in boxes clearly marked with the class teacher's name.

STUDENTS, TEACHERS AND CHAPERONES ARE REQUIRED TO STAY ON MUSEUM PREMISES AT ALL TIMES DURING THE VISIT.
