Visitor Information

The public exhibit is open to anyone including school groups and classes. Many people drop by on their way to and from football games and other campus events. Groups and individuals are always welcome to come in and visit. No reservation is necessary for groups; however, advance notice is appreciated.

Please sign the guest book during your visit! It helps us estimate visitor numbers.

Building Accessibility

There is nearby disability parking for visitors with a state-issued disability placard. A WSU parking permit is still required. Please see WSU Parking and Transportation Services for more details.

Several of the entrances to Abelson require climbing one or more stairs. To avoid all stairs, use the West Entrance and approach from the North, or use the East Entrance. The Abelson / Connor Museum is at the southern end of the building off of NE College Avenue. See the map below:
