Can you still walk the outside of the museum after closing, or do they close the gate to the parking lot. We purchased a brick for my husband, and haven’t been able to get out there to see it, due to the hours he is working. We are here from Indiana

I believe they close the gates to the road going in and out of the parking lot. I guess you'd have to park on the shoulder and walk in if that's allowed I am not sure of the signage.

Yes. My family was able to walk outside where all the bricks are after 5 PM , after visiting the museum which closes at 5. And huge thanks to your family for the service to our country... Salute...
