Our Interpretive Staff – Your Guides to the Past

As you explore the museum, you may meet our art attendant. Please feel free to approach and talk to them like you would anyone else in your daily life. We know that for some people, asking questions at museums and historic sites can feel awkward or intimidating. Don’t worry – our interpretive staff is happy to have a conversation and answer your questions! Staff will do their best to talk with you first, but we encourage you to jump in and begin a conversation. We ask that you approach the staff and your time at the site with the same level of respect and courtesy you use when visiting a friend. Take your time to explore the museum and galleries. 

Touring Time

Touring the museum depends on visitor interest. We recommend a minimum of 45 minutes to an hour to see the facility.
