Accessibility
For the Color Blind
The MAC has partnered with EnChroma, manufacturer of glasses for people with red-green color blindness that allows them to see an expanded range of colors more vibrantly, clearly, and distinctly. We have several pairs of glasses available for loan to visitors while they’re in the museum so they can more fully experience colors in our exhibitions. Just ask for a loaner from the Visitor Services staff where you buy your tickets or check-in.
For People with Physical Disabilities
The exhibition galleries, archives, museum store, auditorium, and administrative offices are all wheelchair accessible. Historic Campbell House is not ADA accessible, however, the Carriage House Activity Center is accessible for all visitors.
Wheelchairs
We have four non-motorized wheelchairs available for guests. Please inquire with a staff member at Visitor Services for assistance.

There are elevators in all multi-level buildings and the parking garage, excluding the Campbell House.
Movement between buildings
The buildings are not interconnected. In order to move between buildings, you must use the exterior concrete flagstone walkway connecting the buildings and the parking garage.
