Check-in will take place in the Benjamin Franklin National Memorial which is located on the second floor of the Science Museum. You may enter at the 20th Street entrance or through the Bartol Atrium if you are using the parking garage. All students must check in for every session at the registration table. Students will receive a name badge that must be worn while participating in the program.

Pick-up is at 3:30PM at the Benjamin Franklin National Memorial (the same location as check-in).

There is meter parking on Winter Street, or you can park in our garage, which is located directly behind the Museum on 21st Street. You can get your parking ticket validated for a reduced parking rate. You will need to have this validation done by Sharon, the registrar at check-in, as it is different from the regular museum visitor's validation.

If you plan on touring the Museum, you may purchase a ticket at the group rate of $6.50 per person; children under four years old are free.

All participants are required to complete and return a signed consent form to us by the end of the first day of each session. Please, fill out the Sign In and Permission Information form if you have not attended a workshop series yet this fall.

Refer to the Sign In and Permission Information (Consent Form).
