For groups of less than 10 people or casual visitors the museum is made available on a self-guided tour basis following a brief introductory orientation session.

Following an initial video presentation and introductory session, groups of up to 50 students and supervisors are taken on a guided tour through the museum.

Other

Upon request, an external speaking engagement can be arranged for groups, organizations, and societies using slides and selected artefacts from the archives and reserve collection.
