Registration and Refund Policy:

Registration costs, less a 10% fee, are refunded when the museum receives cancellation notice at least 48 hours before the start of a program.

The Museum reserves the right to cancel any program that does not meet the minimum participant requirement up to one week before the program is scheduled.
