THEMUSEUM may have additional events and programming occurring the day of your birthday party. Speak with a representative for details about your specific date.

Birthday parties must be booked with two weeks’ notice. If your proposed date is within the next 14 days, unfortunately we will not be able to accommodate your request – we apologize for the inconvenience.

Birthday parties must be scheduled during standard operating hours, otherwise additional rental rates apply. Our hours are listed on our Visit page.
