Guidelines

Guidelines for a Guided Tour

"The museum educators were fabulous!" - Visitor

Late Arrivals

If your group will be arriving late, contact the museum (717-766-2511 Ext. 2431).

Behavior

We reserve the right to ask any disorderly group to leave the building. Under this circumstance, refunds will not be granted.

Photography

Cameras are welcome.

Food, Drinks, Candy & Gum

Food, drinks, candy and gum are not allowed in the museum.

Lunch

Bagged lunches should be brought in boxes/bags and will be stored in the museum until lunchtime.  (It works well for chaperones to carry lunches for their group or for each class to put all lunches in a box or crate which can be easily carried into the museum.)  

If the weather is nice, lunch will be eaten outside at the Larson Student Union, located right behind the Jordan Science Center, which has an outdoor eating area.  In case of inclement weather, we will eat in the lobby of a nearby dorm or in the Jordan Science Center.  Our staff will stay with your group for the entire day, and will guide you to your lunch location.  

Questions

If you have additional questions, contact us at 717-691-6082, option 2 or oakesmuseum@messiah.edu.
