Amenities & Accessibility

Strollers & Wheelchairs

You can rent a stroller for $3 at the Visitor Services Desk in the main lobby.

For visitors with limited mobility, we provide manually-operated wheelchairs for $3 on a first-come, first-served basis at the Visitor Services Desk.

The Museum is equipped with accessible restrooms, and both floors are accessible by elevator or wheelchair ramp. Museum exhibits are wheelchair and stroller accessible. 

Fire regulations and space restrictions do not permit exceptionally wide/large strollers in the galleries. If you bring your own stroller and it does not comply with our policy, you can exchange it, free of charge, for a Museum stroller.
