Holiday closure

We will be closed on Saturday, July 25, 2026 and will reopen on Sunday, July 26, 2026.

While the museum is closed, our Digital Guided Tour is still open. It is the best way to explore the museum from home, with stories and context for selected displays.

You can also take our 360° Virtual Tour for a visual walk-through of the museum rooms and display cases.
