admission
We have implemented timed ticketing through our online reservation system to limit capacity in the Museum and provide a safe and comfortable visit for all.
We strongly encourage all visitors, including members, to reserve their admission tickets for a specific day and time in advance.
Quantities are limited and may not be available for walk-up visitors.
You may also reserve tickets by calling 412.322.5058, ext 240.
Entry Time:
While we understand that precise timing may not be possible all the time with young children and families, we ask that all visitors arrive within 30 minutes of their ticketed entry time. If you arrive earlier than your timed ticket entry time, you may be asked to wait outside. There is no time limit on your visit, you can stay as long as you like.
health & safety
We’ve implemented new procedures, including touchless admission and reduced room capacities, to help ensure a safe and comfortable visit for your family.
