We offer a variety of Museum Tours to fit your group’s needs.

Your admission is valid for the full day, so you can revisit your favorite galleries after your guided tour ends.
For groups of 12 or more, we also offer dedicated Adult & School Group Tours with a group rate on both self-guided and guided options.
For guided group visits, reservations should be made at least two weeks in advance. Self‑guided groups can book with shorter notice, depending on availability.

Free wheelchairs are available on a first-come, first-served basis at the front desk; just leave a photo ID while using one. To reserve one in advance, email [email protected].
The entire 60,000-square-foot building is designed around a single, continuous spiral ramp, so every guest, regardless of ability, shares the same physical path through the galleries rather than a separate accessible route.

The Athlete Training Gallery features six hands-on demonstrations, each built around a different athletic skill: Speed (a running simulator), Aim (virtual archery), Balance (a first-person Skeleton track experience), Strategy (a Sled Hockey decision point), Mental Visualization (memorizing ski-hill maneuvers), and Reaction (a motion-tracking reflex test in Goalball, a sport for visually impaired athletes).
