Please emphasize to your children or students proper etiquette while visiting any museum or historical site, as this may be the first experience for them. Advise them that museums are places where quiet voices are appropriate, running is discouraged and following directions is very important. Because of the sensitive condition and age of the artifacts at the Museum, hands-on activities are only allowed on certain exhibits marked by hands-on activity station signage.
NOTE: While the Denver Firefighters Museum has a “hands-on” philosophy, please encourage children to ask before touching. Some artifacts can be passed around while others need special care and can not be touched.
