We will meet at The Guardian, a large bronze sculpture, just inside the security checkpoint. Restrooms are located near the Guardian and the gift shop. The tour takes around one hour.

Our field trips are student centered. We ask that you help us by allowing students to be toward the front of the tour and room. Parents and caregivers may be asked to be toward the back of the room so as to not obstruct the view for students.

POLICIES: This Epic field trip is free. You will register using Humanitix which will hold your spot for the field trip as a reservation. Parents, please register yourself and each of your Epic students who will be participating. This enables the school and the location to staff and plan appropriately. Our field trips do have a maximum capacity. Therefore, we ask that when registering your students, you only register Epic enrolled Pre-K through 12th grade students so that the spots are filled by our students.

Students cannot be dropped off to attend a field trip without a parent or guardian. You will need your student’s Epic ID number and teacher’s name when signing up for the field trip in Humanitix.
