Ingersoll Museum = '''Hours:''' * '''The museum is typically open Monday-Friday from ''''''8:00am'''''' to ''''''4:00pm''''''. We are closed on legal holidays or when the physics department itself is closed''' '''Walk-ins:''' * '''Groups and individuals are more then welcome to visit the museum at any time without scheduling for a tour guide. However, please notify us if your walk-in group is larger then 10 and always check our [[https://wiki.physics.wisc.edu/facultywiki/https:/www.physics.wisc.edu/museum/Calendar.html|Tour Calendar]] to find a free time for your visit. This way you are not overwhelmed if there happens to be a scheduled tour at that time. ''' * '''Please note that the museum is unstaffed.

We try very hard to schedule one docent per 10-15 kids for each tour. However, multiple docents per tour, is entirely up to the availability each individual docent for that tour time. After-all, they are students with course work to due and exams. * Please try to schedule your tour at least one week before desired date. This will give us a better chance of getting you a docent for your group. * When [[http://info.wisc.edu/campus-tours/|scheduling]] a group tour, reserve one hour for our typical guided tour. Which consists of a 15 to 25 minute tutorial of several exhibits and the rest of the time is set aside for free play & self discovery. Of course, tour durations can very depending on your time constraints. Kids can often fine plenty to do within our museum to keep them engaged for well over an hour. If you are jumping to another UW venue, please budget about 15 minutes to get to your next appointment. Large groups: * Large groups of 40 or more will require special accommodations. I ''strongly'' suggest that you contact [[http://info.wisc.edu/campus-tours/|Campus and Visitor Relations]] to schedule your tour of our museum. We highly recommend that these large groups are broken into 2 or more smaller groups of around 30 kids each for back-to-back tours. Campus and Visitor Relations is much better equipment to help you with such logistics and can suggest other UW campus venues to visit in the interim and bus parking. * For large groups visiting the museum that ''__can not__'' be broken due to time constraints or other factors, a self-guided tour is the best we can do. Please note, that our museum can only hold 100 kids at any one time. Also, we’ll do are best to fine more then one available docent for these large tours to give you the best experience we can.'''
