Details and Frequently Asked Questions
How do I register?
1. After reading this FAQ section, click on the event and time you would like to register for. You should be taken to a registration page. Payment is due at the time of registration. If you are unable to register, it’s possible that session has filled. Please email education@mollybrown.org with any registration problems.
Do I have to register and pay in advance?
Yes. Due to ongoing social distancing measures, our capacity is severely limited. This means that many of our programs fill up months in advance, so in order to reserve your space, advance registration and payment is required. This is true whether you are registering for a program in one month or or 3 months from now.
Why can’t I register for any programs past May?
Due to changing family schedules, we find it beneficial to wait to open fall registration until closer to those programs. We will open up registration for fall programs in late summer.
How much does it cost?
$14 per student and $5 per adult. Siblings may attend for free, however, if they wish to participate in the activities and take-home components of the program they need to be registered as a Student . Space is limited. Advanced registration is required.
If we can’t come, are registrations refundable?
We typically do not offer refunds for program registrations. If your plans change and you can no longer make it, as long as you let us know two-weeks or more before the date of the program, we can generally transfer your registration to another program or event, provided there is space. You would still be responsible for any difference in cost, if one exists. If you let us know less than two weeks out, there are no refunds or transfers.
How many adults can attend?
Due to our limited space, registration is limited to 2 adults per family group. All adults are expected to remain with their students at the stations and assist in the program as needed.
Can younger siblings attend?
Siblings may attend for free, however, if they wish to participate in the activities and take-home components of the program they need to be registered as a student participant.

Will my group get a tour of the museum?
