Policies
Accommodating Small Groups
Due to the high volume of requests for tours, interaction with a Holocaust survivor speaker is only provided to groups with a minimum of 20 people. Groups between 12 and 20 people will be offered a guided museum tour led by a museum educator which includes:
- Brief historical overview
- Thematic film with discussion
- Digitally recorded Holocaust survivor testimony with discussion
Groups of 12 people or fewer are welcome to make an appointment during our regular business hours to tour the museum on their own.
Regrettably, due to regularly scheduled tours and space restrictions, walk-ins cannot always be accommodated.
Additional Important Information
Due to building regulation our museum can accommodate a maximum of 50 people at one time. Please be sure to plan your group visit accordingly.
Please refer to the business hours listed for opening times, any times outside of those listed will not be guaranteed and subject to cancelation pending volunteer and staff availability.
Cancellation Policy
If a museum visit is cancelled with less than two weeks notice, an administrative fee of $150 will be charged.
