GROUP ADMISSIONS
Advanced reservations are required for groups of 20 or more. Please complete the Group Request Form for a docent-led or a self-guided group tour. Group tours must be booked at least 14 days in advance. If you have already filled out the Group Request Form, please do not submit a duplicate request.
Submission of a Group Request Form does not mean that your group has been confirmed and added to the calendar. The Large Group Experience Coordinator will contact you by email to get more information about your group, give you a price quote, and confirm your tour has been booked.
Guided group tours are subject to docent availability but are typically available during museum hours.
Groups of 20 or more receive discounted admission rates with advance registration.
The maximum group size we can accommodate on docent-led and self-guided tours is 30 people at a time. Larger groups will need to divide and take separate staggered tours.
Timed entry tickets are required to visit Greenwood Rising. We suggest purchasing tickets online in advance of your visit.
