Tips for Touring:

Unloading/Parking: 

Parking space is very limited: travel in as few vehicles as possible.  Buses may unload students at the Museum entrance, then park across the street.  Buses must maneuver a shape turn when exiting the Museum.  Bus drivers are admitted free.


Picnic areas:

Picnic area is first-come first-serve basis.  There are 13 picnic tables on the Museum grounds.  There are also covered picnic sites in Lagarde park, just beyond the Museum.  To reserve Lagarde Park picnic facilities and picnic-area restrooms, you may call Anniston Parks and Recreation Department at 256-236-8221.  On-site food facilities are not available, however many restaurants are in close proximity to the Museum; some cater to school groups

Food, beverages (including baby bottles), chewing gum, and tobacco are not allowed in the exhibit halls. These encourage insects which can cause extensive damage to animal mounts.


Accessibility:

Museum exhibit halls and Museum Store are fully handicap accessible.  Two wheel chairs are available for our guests.  Seating is provided throughout the exhibits.


Museum Store:

No visit is complete without a visit to the Museum Store.  Ready-made souvenir gift bags are available upon request.  Request more information when scheduling your visit.
