Morrill Hall will be open normal hours Saturday, April 27. However, due to the Nebraska spring football game, museum parking spots in the lot outside of Morrill Hall will be unavailable.

Visitors may pay a fee to park in other publicly available lots on campus or in parking garages and meters surrounding campus. The ADA parking stalls to the East of Morrill Hall will remain available, but visitors will be charged the UNL Parking & Transit Services' game day parking fee.
