Admission to the Museum is limited for safety reasons to max 250 visitors. Plenty of new activities await you.
As you know, Explora is a special museum where all senses – touch, smell and hearing, as well as sight – are involved: experience on the field, mainly physical, where doing is stronger than saying and play is the prime mover of all.
For your safety, we therefore think it would be wise to introduce to you these 3 sections about:
- What we have done to open in safety –the whole structure has been sanitised, an internal-use protocol has been drawn up for our staff to resume working on-site and remotely;
- What we do to ensure safe visits – guidelines and guidance, best practices put in place by many children’s museums all over the world, as well as our own protocols for visits and workshops, summer camps, school visits and activities;
- What we ask our visitors –rules and tips for visits.
The entire structure has undergone sanitising measures and an internal-use protocol for the Explora staff as well as a protocol for the Museum visitors have been drawn up, in the respect of the guidelines set up by the Conferenza delle Regioni e delle Province autonome, BUR Regione Lazio no. 64 of May 16, 2020 and RapportoISSCOVID-19 no.20 of May 8th.
