Visitor Services and Community Access
Visitor Services: designed to provide information services, process membership benefits, coordinate tour groups, perform introductory lectures, assist with special events and collect entrance fees. Staff monitors multiple park entry points as well as information desks located throughout the park. The ticketing process remained mostly as an online, advanced purchase ticketing system that had been implemented several years earlier in order to maintain a safe environment; with members permitted to visit anytime during the week as a perk. We welcomed over 250,000 visitors. GFS is committed to equitable access and welcoming in the community through its partnership with both Art-Reach ACCESS and Families First Discovery Pass programs in which over 11,600 free admission tickets were issued. Additionally, reduced admission was offered to 5,453 front-line health care workers and 2,228 veterans/active military.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$2.7MContemporary Art Exhibitions
