Instructions to get to Arnold Space Hall:

1. Drive into parking garage (located on Caroline Street) - arm will be in “up” position for us that night, so parking fee is being comp’d by the museum.

2. Take the elevator to Level 1. When you get off the elevator, turn left. Turn right at the massive Amethyst Geode display and go up short flight of stairs and through glass doors.

3. You are now in the museum “store.” Walk straight ahead until you see the main entrance of the museum.

4. From here, there are two ways to get to Arnold Hall:

A. Elevator - Before you reach the main museum entrance (you have not left the store yet), you will see a security guard station to your left. Security staff will be stationed there to assist you. To your right, will be two very tall purple geodes. The elevator is in between the two purple geodes. Take the elevator down to the lower level. Exit elevator to the right, walk down the hall and go left. Find the Gene Norman Channel 11 weather display and the “Earth Forum.” Directly ahead of you will be the registration and refreshment tables for the All-Clubs meeting.

B. Stairs - Go all the way to the main entrance of the museum (through the gift shop) and turn right. Go past the “Will Call/Information” desk and enter to the Paleontology hall. Look to your left for the staircase down to the lower level. At the bottom of the stairs, look for the Gene Normal Channel 11 weather display and “Earth Forum” as above. Turn right and go straight to the Arnold Hall. Look for the registration and refreshment tables.

Surface parking is also available past the rotunda outside the main entrance.
