Accessibility
The landscaped gardens and park grounds are largely accessible with walking trails that are relatively short. The museum building is a historic Tudor cottage; while the main floor gallery and gift shop are generally accessible, some upper levels may have limited access due to the building's age.
Parking
Free on-site parking is available in a dedicated lot for museum and park visitors.
Transit
HSR Route 16 (Ancaster) serves the museum with stops along Wilson Street at Sulphur Springs Road. Note that this route typically does not operate on Sundays or holidays.
Seasonal Note
The museum hosts a major Summer Concert Series from June through August at the Jim Green Bandshell and offers seasonal art workshops, such as the Spring Watercolour Workshop in April.
