ENTRANCE
The museum’s main entrance is located on Kellogg Boulevard and may be reached from the street or from the museum’s parking ramp. The entrance has no exterior or interior steps. This entrance leads into our Lobby. There is a cut-out area on Kellogg Boulevard that can accommodate up to three busses for drop off. It is approximately 100 feet from Kellogg Boulevard to the entry doors.

(Quick note: the Science Museum is built into a bluff on the bank of the Mississippi River. From an orientation perspective, this means the main entrance and Lobby are near the top of the museum on level 5 and the exhibits spaces are built at and below the Lobby on levels 3, 4 and 5, along the side of the bluff.)

If you will be parking on site, there are elevators to take you up to the Lobby. Turn right when you exit the elevator. The doors to the Lobby will be on your left in about 20 feet.

FROM THE LOBBY TO THE EVENT
Upon entrance, you will see the T. rex to your right and the Box Office to the left. Walk around the Box Office and veer left to get to the Riverway stairs and elevators. If the Box Office or Musical Stairs are on your left, the Riverway elevators will be along the brick wall to your right. Look for signs with the Upstream Arts logo.

Go UP one level to the 6th floor. Go through the blue doors to access Elements Café, where The Art of We: Are More Than Once Story is held.

We’re looking forward to seeing you there!
