We are in a storefront-style building with two (soon to be three) floors of exhibits. We first opened our doors to the public in October of 2015. Since then, we've welcomed guests from all over the world, and have run over two thousand guided tours as of late 2024. text/html 2023-11-30T18:13:30+0000 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.mact.io/behind_the_scenes?rev=1701368010&do=diff Behind The Scenes at LSSM As our exhibits are “up and running” for visitors to see and explore, they often require maintenance and repairs. Further, almost nothing that we receive is functional when we receive it, so bringing functional exhibits to the public often involves a lot of work by our dedicated (and sometimes fanatical!) tech staff. text/html 2022-06-15T17:35:10+0000 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.mact.io/contact_us?rev=1655314510&do=diff PLEASE NOTE: We typically respond within 1-2 days.

How long does the tour take? A. As different people have different interests and different levels of technical knowledge, there is no set structure and no defined “tour”. Visitors to LSSM are welcome to come in and explore, ask questions, dig into and run specific systems, etc. Some people even come to see or run a single system. Or, for a more general experience, our docents are happy to provide guidance.

As we all have day jobs, we do not currently have sufficient staff coverage available for the museum to have regular open hours. Instead, we handle visits by appointment. Most of our volunteers' employers are very understanding and supportive of our activities with the museum, so with a few days' notice, we can handle almost any schedule, though afternoons are much easier than mornings. Also, kids are welcome! text/html 2020-02-20T02:45:51+0000 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.mact.io/our_exhibits?rev=1582166751&do=diff Our Exhibits ---------- On our exhibit floors, our exhibits are broken down roughly by the company that built the systems. In the links below you can drill down to see more information about what's on exhibit now. We try to keep this section up to date, but as we spend more time maintaining our systems than our website, there may be some discrepancies.

No one will be denied an experience here just because they don't have a few dollars in their pocket. That said, it does cost real money to run our museum, and these costs are borne by our volunteer staff, often from our own pockets. We do this as a labor of love.
