We ask that all guided tour groups schedule your visit 1+ week prior to arriving by submitting a tour request form. Some common groups that fall into this category include:
- K-12 School Groups
- College/University Groups
- Clubs/Organizations
- Senior Citizen Groups
Guided tours are limited to 25 visitors.
K-12 School Groups must be chaperoned. Chaperones are responsible for monitoring the group's behavior.
- All visits to Card/Riley are free!
- Tours must be scheduled Monday-Friday, between 10am-12pm, and 1pm-3pm.
- Groups with more than 25 people must be divided and given tours separately.
- Guided tours are 30-45 minutes.
- If you are arriving via bus, the Ferris State University Physical plant has removed the gate at the end of the service drive on the west side of the Science Building at Cedar St. Please see the attached map for the location where buses can drop off their passengers on the drive to the north of the Arts, Sciences and Education Commons (ASC). Students will then need to walk through the ASC to the museum if that is their destination.
- Please arrive 5 minutes early.
- If you must cancel, please email us as soon as possible to [email protected].
k-12 tour Information
- We recommend no less than 5 chaperones per group of 20 students.
- Chaperones must remain with the group during the entire program and accept responsibility for monitoring the group’s behavior.
- Through a generous donation by the George Riley estate, bus expenses for MOISD visits are provided for. Please ask if that is available when booking your tour.
