Wheelchair Accessibility

The Joseph M. Bryan, Jr., Theater in the Museum Park is wheelchair accessible from the Museum's main parking lot. The path leading from the Blue Ridge street level parking lot is not ADA compliant.

For concerts: Upon entering the ticket gate, follow the blacktop path on the right around the grass seating area. The first break in the path on the left leads to our wheelchair-accessible patio. The path continues down to the left side of the stage for access to the restrooms.

For films: Upon entering the ticket gate, follow the blacktop path on the right around the grass seating area. Continue on the path to the rear of the amphitheater stage area. Take the ramps to the wooden viewing platform facing the screen.
