The museum is adjacent to the America Plaza Trolley Station, served by the Blue, Green, and Orange Lines, and just across from Santa Fe Depot, which is also served by the COASTER. Parking: Metered street parking and several paid public garages/lots are available nearby. The museum recommends allowing an extra 10–15 minutes to park and walk to the entrance.
