HOMESCHOOL THURSDAY
With an abundance of caution, the South Carolina State Museum is suspending Homeschool Thursday programming for Fall 2021. We’ll continue planning and monitoring into the new year. Please stay tuned to our website for future updates.
In the meantime, you don’t have to wait for Homeschool Thursday to visit the Museum or take advantage of our offerings. South Carolina homeschool families receive FREE* general admission to the museum year-round. General admission includes ONE adult (primary teacher) and all children associated with the homeschool. Any additional adult chaperone is $5. Any additional guests just visiting with the homeschool family must pay regular admission ($8.95/adult; $6.95/children). Homeschool families receive discounted admission to the 4D Theater and planetarium $3 per person. These discounts cannot be combined with any other promotions are available with ONSITE purchasing only.
Thank you for being part of our homeschool family. If you need anything further, please do not hesitate to contact homeschools@scmuseum.org or by phone 803.898.4990.
