Here is essential information needed to plan your group visit.
Groups arriving at the museum will first watch a 17-minute introductory
video that gives a short history of the various nutcrackers and take you
into a German workshop to see a nutcracker being made. After
this, the group will tour the museum, and if scheduled, go on one of the
Nutcracker Lady’s nutcracker hunts. Payment Schedule for group
reservations:
Student
groups of 15 or more: $2.00 each with 1 chaperone free

Adult
Groups of 15 or more: $3.50 each with 1 escort free

To inquire or to make reservations for a group visit, please call the museum at 509-548-4573 and ask for either Michelle or Debbie. It is always nice if you complete the form below before calling so we can follow up in advance of our conversation.
CANCELLATIONS: If your group needs to cancel, you may reschedule and transfer any advance payments made (up to one year from originally scheduled date) or you can cancel completely with a full refund minus a 15% administrative fee.
VIDEO VIEWING ROOM: Large groups of 25 or more will be divided into 2 groups 45 minutes apart. The tour leader may also issue individual prepaid vouchers allowing the group to arrive individually at their own time during the day which eliminates the escorted tour.
Monday - Saturday 11-5pm
Sunday - 11-4:30pm
We suggest visitors arrive at least 30 minutes before closing.
"To foster and encourage the interest of the general public of the importance of nuts in the diets of humans throughout history and in the evolution of the nutcracker. No other tool or collectible has shown such a wide diversity of material and design as the implements used to crack the hard shell of a nut".
