Here are some field trip guidelines for your upcoming trip:

All our exhibits are hands-on and interactive because MOXI is a place for exploration and discovery! Because of this, our field trips are self-guided with floor staff “MOXI Sparks” available to assist.

Field trips typically spend about 90 minutes in the museum and have access to the entire museum. The Innovation Workshop is a room located to right of the entrance on the first floor. We are welcome to explore the Workshop if there’s only 2 or 3 families in there at a time. The students may explore the Interactive Media Theater but must do so in groups of 7 or fewer and must be accompanied by a chaperone.

Food and Drink: Please have your students leave their backpacks and water bottles in the car. We do not have any area within the museum for field trips to eat lunch. Most of our field trips that bring lunches, eat at the grassy area right next to MOXI or walk down to the sitting wall at the beach.

Engineering Exploration Lab Information:

Your group will go into the Engineering Exploration lab at 10:00 AM for about 50 minutes. We only need to have teachers and a chaperone or two in the lab during this time. The other chaperones can either be out on the museum floor or they can grab a coffee out on State street (no food or drink allowed in the museum) and meet the group when they are finished at around 11:00 AM.

Parking:  Most of our visitors park in the train station parking lot (right next to MOXI). The first 75 minutes are free and every additional hour is $1.50. There is limited free street parking nearby. Additional parking can be found in any of the nearby Santa Barbara city lots.
