Wende Museum Exhibition Tours: Counter/Surveillance

Special Needs

Accessibility & Accommodations

• Service Dogs

Service dogs — that is, dogs trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability, including a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability — are welcome at the Wende Museum. Service dogs should be dressed as service animals, and must be on leash, remain on the ground, and be under the constant control and supervision of the handler. Service dogs must be housebroken. Cleaning up and disposing of liquid or solid waste is the sole responsibility of the service dog’s handler, and the museum suggests bringing necessary supplies and addressing this issue before entering the museum’s property. A service dog and its handler will be asked to leave if at any time the dog is out of control or deposits waste on museum property.

• Accessible Entrance and Exits

The front entrance of the museum is wheelchair- and stroller-accessible.

Both public and emergency exits in the rear of the building are also wheelchair- and stroller-accessible.

Multiple accessible parking spaces are available in the public parking lot immediately adjacent to the museum.

All galleries, offices, workspaces, and outdoor facilities are wheelchair-accessible.

• Restrooms

There are two single-stall all-gender restrooms at the rear of the museum, as well as a multi-stall women’s restroom and a multi-stall men’s restroom near the front entrance. All restrooms are wheelchair-accessible.

• Seating

Seating is available in all public galleries as well as the museum gardens.
