Directions:
All films are shown in the Center for Museum Education – Classroom A.
- From the front entrance: Walk straight through the First Floor, down the rear stairs, and through the glass doors. Classroom A is on the right.
- From the rear (portal) entrance: Walk straight past the museum security office (on the left) and through the glass doors. Classroom A is on the left.
If you get lost, just ask one of the guards or employees!
