ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

Hi everyone,
What policies do you have in place for visitors in terms of appropriate clothing/footwear at your Science Centre/museum? Has you had any interesting experiences with your visitors?
We recently had a case where a boy (age 4-5yrs old) was observed by a staff member without a shirt on in an exhibit area. The staff member checked with the mother if they had brought a tshirt and she subsequently redressed her child.
(N.B. Our current 'Conditions of Entry' state ONLY state that footwear must be worn.)
Thanks!
