Family Guide

The National Civil Rights Museum seeks to open a dialogue about the story of African Americans who experienced and resisted discrimination — a history that spans slavery through the modern Civil Rights Movement, nonviolent protests to armed self-defense. To reveal the full story, the museum contains sensitive materials that may be frightening or troubling to children and adolescents.  Review our family guide for suggestions on ways to discuss sensitive topics with young visitors.

 

Security Screenings

All guests entering the National Civil Rights Museum are subject to a screening process.  The National Civil Rights Museum reserves the right to inspect all guest’s packages, purses, backpacks, fanny packs and other bags prior to entering the museum. Sharp objects more than 2.5 inches long, weapons and illegal contraband will not be permitted in the museum. Please leave and secure any unnecessary articles in your vehicle to expedite your entry.  Oversize bags brought into the museum must be checked with security.  Animals are not allowed in the museum, except for service animals.

Group Reservations

No trip to Memphis would be complete without a visit to the National Civil Rights Museum, a one-of-a-kind excursion for school, church and tour groups, family reunions, corporate outings, business meetings, receptions and more.

Groups of 20 or more are eligible for a discounted admission rate if reservations are made at least two weeks in advance. Unscheduled groups arriving without a reservation are not eligible for the discounted admission rate.
