Frequently Asked Questions
When you arrive at the museum, please park in the parking lot and pay for parking (see below for parking details). One of our education staff will be ready to greet you in front of the main doors. We will provide chaperones with a schedule of the program, a map, and nametags. Our staff will review the expectations for the day with the Girl Scouts, and then lead your group to the first stop of the day – the Multiverse Theater. Please arrive by 9:00am to ensure your group is able to participate in all of the scheduled activities.
If participants arrive late, the program may be shortened or altered to accommodate for reduced time. We cannot guarantee that all badge requirements will be met, though we will try our best to assist. We will work with late arrivals to alter the schedule which may result in a shortened Multiverse Theater show, a public Multiverse Theater show later in the day, less time in exhibits, or other changes as we are able to accommodate on the given day. Arriving at 9:00am is the best way to ensure all participants are able to collaborate with the rest of the group and fulfill all badge requirements.
Yes! MOSAC’s parking lot is a city lot with a fee of $6 per car. You can use the kiosk in front of the museum to pay for parking or by visiting the PARKMOBILE website or app, input the location code 6848, and check out as a guest. Remember to lock your cars and do not leave any valuables visible. MOSAC is not responsible for lost or stolen items.
Adult supervision is required at all times during the program and throughout the museum. 1 Chaperone per 8 Girl Scouts minimum is required for registration to be processed. The maximum adult supervision ratio we permit is 1 Chaperone per 3 Girl Scouts as our classrooms and Multiverse Theater have limited space. Thank you for your understanding.
Non-Girl Scout siblings are not permitted to attend Girl Scouts programming. If additional adults and siblings would like to explore the museum during Girl Scout programming and meet up with Girl Scouts after programming has been completed, they are welcome to buy tickets from the front desk once the museum opens at 10:00am. Please note that adults who attend with non-Girl Scout children will be treated as general museum guests, must pay admission, will not be included in Girl Scout programming, and should not be counted in the 1:8 ratio. Thank you for your cooperation.
Refillable water bottle and close-toed shoes are recommended. Please note that while you may bring snacks for after the program, we do not allow food in our Multiverse Theater, exhibits, or classrooms.
Yes! Our programs accommodate 30 participants. This means that if your group is less than our participant maximum, there is a good chance other groups or participants will also be in the program. This is a great opportunity for participants to meet new people and make new connections! If you are interested in a private troop experience, please email registeredprograms@visitmosac.org.
All programs are designed to be developmentally appropriate and to meet the badge requirements for each specific age level. This means that each program covers different content. Please register participants for their appropriate age level to ensure content is developmentally appropriate and meets badge requirements.
Send us an email at registeredprograms@visitmosac.org! We may be able to offer you a private troop experience on an alternate date.
