Current COVID-19 Mitigation Measures

The Discovery is open!

We are excited to welcome you to the museum and want to make you aware of what you can expect when you visit:

Face coverings
Per State of Nevada Directive 052, masks are suggested but not required for all museum visitors, regardless of vaccination status. An inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public space where people are present. The Discovery cannot guarantee that you will not be exposed to COVID-19 during your visit.

Cleaning and sanitizing
Museum staff will be frequently cleaning and sanitizing the museum throughout the day. Museum exhibitions may be closed on a rotating schedule throughout the day for deep cleaning and sanitizing. Some exhibits may not be available due to sanitization limitations.

Advance tickets
Advance tickets are NOT REQUIRED to visit the museum. Museum admission can be purchased at the admissions desk upon arrival at The Discovery.
