THE CHILDREN’S MUSEUM’S BIRTHDAY PARTY CONTRACT:

- In order to schedule a birthday party you must pay the amount in full. Once you book your party, you cannot upgrade or degrade your party plan. If you cancel your party, you will receive a refund of ½ your amount. If you do not show up for your party and have not cancelled at least 24 hours in advance you will not receive the ½ refund.

- If you change the time or date of your party, there will be a $50.00 transfer fee.

- Please arrive on time. We have other parties that may be scheduled before or after yours. Therefore, we cannot extend your time if you are late; however, you may arrive up to 30 minutes prior to your scheduled time in order to prepare for your party. (Your party room is not guaranteed to be 100% ready for you thirty minutes prior).

- The Children’s Museum has set aside designated party rooms. You may not change your party room location. “Third Floor Fun” parties are located on the third floor. “Cake and Kids” and “Do It Yourself” parties are located downstairs. If your downstairs party is on the hour, it’s in the North party room. If it is on the half hour, it’s in the South party room.

- We would like to remind you that all food, drinks and other non-museum items must be kept inside the party rooms. For safety reasons, we do not allow piñatas. We ask that you give out party favors as your guests are leaving to make sure they are not left in the museum.

- Please pay attention to the time. Our policy states that you have a designated time in the party room (this includes cleaning). We recommend the following schedule to assure that you receive the most of our facilities while adhering to our time policy: The first 30 minutes gives the children time to play while you greet your guests. The second 30 minutes should be set aside for cake and opening presents. You must use the last 30 minutes as clean-up time if you have a “Do It Yourself” party. Please remember that this schedule is for the party room only. You and your guests may stay at the museum until 5:00 P.M.

- If you have booked a “Do it Yourself Party” you are required to clean up before the end of your scheduled party time. Proper cleaning of the party rooms includes vacuuming, removing trash and wiping down tables and chairs. We will supply the cleaning supplies.

- For the “3^rd Floor Fun” and “Cake and Kids” plan, you are responsible for supplying the cake, candles, a serving utensil and items for the adults. Relax and enjoy your child's party while we do all the work. The plan includes the admission to the museum for 20 children, use of the party room for the designated time, party bags for the children, invitations, which you receive in advance to send out to the guests, a t-shirt for the birthday child, and punch and ice cream for the children only. (You will need to supply the drinks, ice cream and paper products for the adults.) In this plan, we decorate and clean up everything. All you do is serve the cake and enjoy the party.

- For weekday parties beginning after 3:00, you will pay an extra fee of $25.00.

- The museum’s back door is not an entrance or exit and may not be used at any time. For your convenience, you may park in the side alley to unload your party supplies; however, the alley cannot be blocked. It must remain clear at all times for traffic.

- The museum will not guarantee that all exhibits and/or ArtSpace will be available at the time of your party.

- We want your party to be successful and fun for your guests. However, it is important to remember the following: YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BEHAVIOR OF YOUR GUESTS. IF AT ANY TIME DURING YOUR PARTY YOU OR YOUR GUESTS ARE FOUND TO BE CONTINUALLY DISTURBING OTHER CUSTOMERS, YOU AND YOUR GUESTS WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE MUSEUM. YOU WILL FORFEIT ANY REFUND AND WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO BOOK PARTIES IN THE FUTURE.

Please call the museum at 337-433-9420 to book your party. We stay booked about 3-4 weeks in advance.
