Tips to Plan Your Visit

Bypass the Box Office! Tickets for special exhibits are limited and sold on a timed basis. Advance purchase using the electronic ticket option is strongly recommended so you can guarantee a date and time you prefer. Buy tickets online or by phone at 215.448.1200. May is our busiest time for Field Trips. If you are planning a visit during the weekday, afternoons are recommended.
