Self-Guided Visit Reservation Form

A Desert Museum field trip is a great way to bone up on biology or rock out with geology as science comes alive for your students. Desert Museum visits help reinforce your teaching of Adaptations, Structure and Function, Ecology, Ecosystems, Conservation Issues, Earth History and Rocks and Minerals.

With the form below, you can reserve a self-guided visit. If you’d like to add an animal experience to your visit, fill out the Self-Guided Visit with Animal Experience form instead.
