NOTE: We apologize for the inconvenience, but there is construction on Jayhawk Boulevard, now through Aug. 2, in front of the museum and the Kansas Memorial Union. If you park in the KU Visitor Parking garage, take the walkway across to the Kansas Memorial Union. Walk or take the elevator to the Union's 4th floor, and exit through the south east doors - we're right next door. You can also drop passengers off at 14th and Jayhawk Boulevard.
