Kristine's post made me wonder if anyone offers a "wrap around"
admission - ie, come after a certain hour, and your admission is good
for the end of that day and all of the next day.
We don't - all our tours are guided, so you either make the last tour
(one hour before closing) or you come back another day.

Subject: Re: [MUSEUM-L] Posted Closing Time versus Admission
We stop selling admissions 45 minutes prior to closing. Sometimes people
argue with us and want to get in for free if they come after that time,
but it really does take more than 45 minutes to really enjoy the museum,
so we invite them to "come back tomorrow". Our hours of operation and
admission sales are indicated on a large sign outside of our front
entrance.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Posted Closing Time versus Admission
I'm wondering how others handle the sale of admissions as your closing
time approaches.
1) Do you sell admissions right up to the posted closing time, or
do you cut off admissions prior to the posted time? For example, if you
close at 6, and someone walks in at 5:55, do you allow them through your
museum?
2) If not, how long is the window when you do not sell admissions?
3) If you cut admissions off prior to closing time, is that posted
anywhere?
