FAQs

Some Frequently Asked Questions are...

How can I get involved with children I bring to the museum?
Leonardo's seeks to offer a quality education experience for all our guests. We strongly encourage parents, grandparents, caregivers and educators to get engaged in the learning and discovery with their children. Introduce your children to the hands-on components in all our exhibits. Work together to construct projects in our Carpentry Shop, enter the enchanting world of make believe in our Dress-up Area, pet a live animal, or paint a masterpiece. Also, you can always simply ask questions to inspire thinking and foster problem-solving skills. Don’t forget that our guest services team members are here to help!

Are there any special events going on this week?
Check our calendar for upcoming events. We also have special activities (animal feedings, art and science classes) going on in the museum on a regular basis. Be sure to pick up a copy of our member newsletter at the front desk for even more information.

Where can I store my personal belongings?
Cubbyholes located near the entrance are available and free of charge. While these storage areas are usually safe, Leonardo's is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items.

What should I do with my stroller?
Strollers are welcome in Leonardo's Discovery Warehouse & Adventure Quest. However, we do ask that you keep your stroller with you and that they not be left unattended. If you'd like to park your stroller, please ask a guest services team member for assistance.

Are there any museum rules?
Each exhibit is designed for hands-on entertainment, so have fun and touch whatever you wish. We only ask that activities and props stay in their designated exhibits. For safety reasons, be sure to walk while inside the museum and keep food and drinks in designated areas. Also, shoes are required in all areas of the museum and playground except the AQ water table. Most importantly, have fun and make a wonderful family memory!

Where can I get lunch?
Snacks are available at the Gift Shop. Or, we are happy to arrange to have lunch delivered to your larger group through special arrangement with McDonald's, or Papa John's—be sure to let us know at least a day in advance. Also, feel free to bring a picnic. Outside food is permitted in an indoor eating area as well as several outdoor picnic areas. If none of those options work for you, try one of Enid 's local restaurants near the museum (just make sure your hand is stamped for re-entry).

How is Leonardo's funded?
Admissions and other earned revenue cover only a portion of the museum's operating costs. However, Leonardo's Discovery Warehouse & Adventure Quest is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization that seeks revenue via donations, grants and sponsorships so that we can continue to change and grow. We welcome and value your financial support. A copy of our most recent annual report is available at the front desk. Donations may also be made to Leonardo’s online and are tax deductible. Your donations may also be earmarked to provide camp scholarships and museum visits for low income children in our community.

How do I become a member of Leonardo's?
We offer annual museum memberships for just $110 plus tax for up to five people. Payment options include a monthly bank draft for your convenience. In addition to unlimited visits for a full year, all Leonardo’s members receive discounts in the gift shop and on all programs (including camps), discounts on birthday parties, weekly member emails, quarterly newsletters, and early admission to select special events. For more information, email our membership coordinator.

How can I volunteer at Leonardo's?
We love our volunteers and they play a significant role here. From building exhibits and working with children to administrative opportunities, Leonardo's offers volunteer opportunities that are stimulating and gratifying. Applications can be obtained from the Admissions Desk during museum hours, or email our volunteer coordinator.
