The Schulz Campus

Just across the street from the Museum is Snoopy’s Home Ice, which was designed and built by Schulz and his first wife, Joyce. Visitors can ice skate or enjoy a hot chocolate by the fireplace in the Warm Puppy Café, which looks out onto the ice and was favorite of Schulz for breakfast and lunch. His table remains reserved. The Café features homemade soups and fresh salads and sandwiches by Chef Josef. View the daily specials and menu online.

Just beyond the Ice Arena, is Snoopy’s Gallery and Gift Shop, a shopping mecca for Peanuts fans, with some must-see Peanuts features, including a stained glass rose window and carpeted wall murals featuring Snoopy and Woodstock.

Every Day at the Schulz Museum

Museum Theater

Discover new depths of Charles M. Schulz’s life and art in our 100-seat theater. With a current schedule of Peanuts animated specials, biographical films and interviews featuring Schulz and other cartoonists, visitors are invited to have a cinematic experience learning about Schulz, watching beloved Peanuts animated specials and creating new memories with friends and family. View the theater schedule for this month.

Education Room

We believe in the power of creativity. Become a cartoonist yourself. Draw, animate, learn, discover! Our hands-on Education Room is a place for visitors of all ages to practice cartooning, color Peanuts characters, fold Snoopy’s doghouse out of origami, create your own hand-drawn animation for our giant zoetropes, learn more about our exhibitions, and enjoy other activities as scheduled. The Education Room is free with price of Museum Admission. It is open during regular Museum operating hours (except special events or rentals).

Permanent Exhibitions

In addition to three changing gallery spaces, the Museum has a number of permanent exhibitions, from the Colorado Nursery Wall that Schulz painted for his daughter Meredith, to the outdoor Snoopy Labyrinth that visitors can meander through as they contemplate their relationship with nature. Learn more here about the permanent exhibits.

Daily Docent-Led Tours (during the Summer months)

Led by the Museum’s knowledgeable docents, daily tours give visitors a 30-minute introduction to the Museum. Tours depart from the Museum’s Great Hall every day at 11:30 am, except for the following days – June 26, July 31, and August 28 – when the tour is at 12:00 pm.

Visitors unable to join the docent-led tours need not worry! Museum volunteers are stationed throughout the Museum daily and year-round. They are more than happy to answer visitor questions, discuss Schulz’s life and art, and some volunteers can even share personal stories about Schulz.
