Postponing, notifications and make-up dates

February 24, 2021

We will make every effort to show movies as scheduled ‘rain or shine’ and only adjust in severe weather circumstances.
We encourage all guests to dress for the weather – and potential weather changes.
Umbrellas are not permitted while the movie is playing.
When rain or severe weather is predicted in close proximity to the museum during movie hours (approximately 8:00 p.m. – 10:30 p.m.) with 60% certainty or greater, the show for that evening will be postponed to one of the designated makeup dates.
The call will be made by 4:00 p.m. on the day of the film. This information will be posted on the museum’s website and emailed to all ticket holders.
Make-up dates:
- Friday, October 15 – The first postponed movie will be scheduled for this date
- Friday, October 22 – The second postponed movie will be scheduled for this date
- Friday, October 29 – The third postponed movie will be scheduled for this date
If inclement weather arises during a film, Nelson-Atkins staff may delay or pause the film up to 45 minutes, then resume. If a delay is expected to – or actually – exceed(s) 45 minutes, the show will be canceled.
