After a busy summer, we are closed for our annual Fall Fix-Up. We are conducting exhibit and facility maintenance and tackling heavy cleaning projects. Additionally, staff is taking part in training days where we reflect on ways we engage students and families, learn about updates regarding accessibility and inclusion, explore what's coming in the 2025-2026 season of new exhibits, Theater performances, and program offerings.
The Museum will re-open bright and shiny on Saturday, September 20, 2025 at 10 a.m. for the public, with a members only hour at 9 a.m. See our fall 2025 hours.
Note: See licm.org/nunleys for Nunley's Carousel operating hours.
