We’re focusing on scheduling lectures and tours for K-12 and higher education school groups for the time being. If you’re not with a school group, don’t worry – you can share your name and email address with us here and we’ll send you a quick email as soon as we’re ready to accept tour requests again from other groups. We appreciate your continued patience!
Thank you for filling out our general tour availability survey. Here are the results that will help us offer tour dates and times more likely to fit people’s schedules that smaller groups can join:
Here are two videos to introduce you to our facility. These videos are different than our virtual tour and can help tour participants become more engaged by introducing them to topics in advance to create a small amount of familiarity behind them, or suit as a substitute for visiting in-person. Educators are encouraged to contact us if they incorporate this into their cirriculums and would like to set up a complementary Zoom Q&A component!
