“We respectfully encourage you wear a mask even if you are vaccinated, to protect our youngest visitors who are not able to be vaccinated at this time,” the museum said in an email to patrons.

“If you are unable to wear a mask due to a disability or medical condition, please notify our staff at the Admissions desk when you arrive.”

Patrons ages 2-12 and unvaccinated adults are still required to wear masks within the museum. AAHOM staff and volunteers will be masked.

The children’s museum has offered private pod and group rentals over the past few months as capacity limitations and social distancing requirements have changed.

Reserve a time for a pod of up to 25 people here.

Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum is at 220 E. Ann St.
