Museum Tour Request

Notice:

The Physics Ingersoll Museum is officially OPEN standard hours!!

Due to a docent staffing shortage, most all tours will have to be “Self-Guided”  until students can be hired. 

Please avoid double-booking your tour with currently scheduled
tours.

If there is a double-booking, priority will be granted to the first submitted request.
Please avoid overlapping your own tour groups!

Questions? Please contact Steve Narf at 608-262-3898.

Please note that all our docents are students and may not be available at your requested time. Group size can determine whether or not you go with self-guided or guided. If any one group is larger then 40 and can not be split, then your tour may end up as a self-guided or free play tour.
 
Please check the box below to acknowledge that, although we will do our best to provide a tour guide, the museum is unstaffed, so we cannot guarantee that a guide will be available.
The museum is open Monday-Friday from 8:00am to 4:00pm. We are closed on weekends, legal holidays or when the physics department itself is closed. Please check the tour calendar for other closure dates and open houses.
