With about 60,000 square feet inside the museum and a nature trail that’s nearly three-quarters of a mile long, there’s so much to see and do! We have made general estimates for visitation time, but these can vary greatly based on age and interest level.

Museum Exhibit Galleries: 1-2 hours
Most Programs: 45 minutes
Nature Trail: 30-45 minutes
The Farm: 30-45 minutes (open seasonally)
Catawba Indian Village: 30-45 minutes (open seasonally)

The Schiele Museum welcomes all visitors and strives to make its exhibitions, programs, and services accessible to everyone. All of the museum’s indoor exhibits are accessible by wheelchair, and all public floors of the museum can be reached by using an accessibility ramp.

The James H. Lynn Planetarium includes wheelchair locations and companion seats. All restroom locations are accessible to those in wheelchairs or with mobility impairments.

Wheelchairs are available for visitors on a first-come, first-served basis at the front desk. Due to inclines and gravel footing of the Nature Trail, all areas may not be easily accessible by those with mobility impairments.

We do not have a restaurant, however, we do have an outdoor picnic area that visitors are welcome to use. 

We do not charge admission to walk on the Nature Trail (open from dawn to dusk.) Please note: the trail closes to the public when there are special events happening on the nature trail.
