Open House
The lab has an open house once a year on a Saturday and Sunday in May or June, when the public is invited to tour the facilities and see live demonstrations of JPL science and technology. More limited private tours are also available throughout the year if scheduled well in advance. Thousands of schoolchildren from Southern California and elsewhere visit the lab every year.

Famous quotes containing the words open and/or house:
“Rita: Sadie, don’t open the door. It might be the guests.
Sadie: It can’t be. It’s only seven.
Rita: Well if it is, they mustn’t see you like that.
Sadie: If they’re that early, they deserve what they get.”
—Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
“As far as I can see, this autumn haze
That spreading in the evening air both ways
Makes the new moon look anything but new
And pours the elm-tree meadow full of blue,
Is all the smoke from one poor house alone....”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
