Wimberley Valley Museum

Behavior Guidelines

Welcome! We look forward to having you visit our museum.

For a successful visit, please review the following with your group before arrival:

  1. Look, don’t touch. Our mission is to preserve our objects for future generations to enjoy, and touching runs the risk of breaking them or damaging them with the natural oils on your skin. Walk mindfully through the exhibitions.
  2. Discard food and drinks at the door. Food and drinks can damage art, books, and materials. They are not allowed in our exhibition spaces.
  3. Practice courteous cell-phone use. Cell phones disrupt other visitors, students, and researchers. Please set phones to vibrate while in the museum.
  4. Ask questions. See something you would like to know more about? Ask one of our volunteer docents, or email us after your visit.
  5. Consider making a donation. Unlike most museums, we do not charge admission, so every dollar in the donation box is important in supporting our exhibitions and publications. Your contribution is appreciated, no matter how small.
  6. Tell us what you think. We’re very interested in the comments of our visitors. Sign our visitor log and leave a short note while you’re here, or send your thoughts in an email to wimberleyvalleymuseum@wimwic.org after your visit.
  7. Spread the word. If you enjoyed your visit to the Wimberley Valley Museum, please tell others! Word of mouth is our best advertisement, and we’re always grateful when someone new finds us.

Thank you! Please come back and visit us again.
