The museum is reopening!

  • This event has passed.

After being closed for a week, we are happy to welcome you back to safe, fun discovery and to experience the special exhibition Mental Health: Mind Matters. Conversations about mental health were important before this year, and they are even more so now.

Opening Sunday, December 6
Regular hours: Wednesday – Sunday, 10:00am – 6:00pm

And, to help put your mind at ease, we wanted to share some of our safety guidelines and information with you:

  • Masks: Visitors, staff, and volunteers are required to properly wear masks over their nose and mouth in compliance with state and county regulations.
    Thanks to Stanford Children’s Health for this educational, informative video about the science behind face masks!
  • Air Filtration: To maximize indoor air quality and performance, the museum’s HVAC system completely exchanges air approximately every ten minutes, and the museum has high quality air filters in our HVAC system that are changed out regularly.
  • Clean & Safe: We want you to feel confident in your discovery! To ensure a fun and safe visit to the museum, cleaning procedures have been adjusted, including sanitizing high-touch experiences frequently, modification to some hands-on exhibits, and voluntary implementation of a personal no-touch stylus during your visit.
  • Physical Distancing: Even with limited on-site capacity consisting of 100 visitors in over 21,000 sq feet, we kindly request that visitors maintain a physical distance of 6 feet from others.
  • Ticket Reservation: The museum is free to experience during the run of Mental Health: Mind Matters, but tickets need to be reserved in advance of visiting on our website, including a reservation for the Tot Spot. This helps us manage capacity and encourage physical distancing!

Thank you!

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we all navigate this unprecedented time together. Access to mental health resources are vital during this time, and we’re proud to offer approachable, interactive, and educational mental health information through the exhibit Mental Health: Mind Matters for all in our community.
