Via automobile: From Interstate-5

  1. Exit at the Corson Avenue South, exit #162.
  2. Continue on Corson Avenue South. The Museum is just past the intersection of Corson Avenue South and South Willow Street.
  3. As you approach South Willow Street, you will notice a three-story telephone office on your left with a white concrete panel exterior and very few windows—the museum is in this building.
  4. Look for the sidewalk sign on your left advertising the museum. Then turn left into the parking lot. NOTE: Corson Avenue South ends at East Marginal Way South (a major street with a stoplight). The museum entrance is before this intersection. If you go too far, turn left at the stoplight and make several left turns to circle back around the museum.
  5. Park behind the building and walk to the chain-link fence.
  6. Turn right and go up the ramp.
  7. Go through the door and take the elevator to the 3rd floor to start the tour.
