On July 4, we celebrated our birthday along with the founding of our country by offering special pricing of 5 people for just $10.

Our year-long birthday celebration continues on August 12. Know anyone who is 10 years old just like us? Come to the Mayborn to enjoy our last Dino Day and free admission to all visitors that are 10 years of age.

Mayborn Museum Members and Baylor University students receive free admission.

 

Schedule Changes

Exciting changes are coming to Baylor's campus this fall with the opening of McLane Stadium. Although there is a comprehensive plan for traffic and parking on Baylor campus during games, we are uncertain of the impact on the museum operation. As a result, we plan to close the museum for the first two home games of the 2014 football season, on August 31 and September 6.

Mayborn Museum staff will observe traffic flow during the first two games and consider all aspects to determine our game day schedule for the remainder of the 2014 season. Sic 'Em Bears!
