The Stanley is always a place where students are encouraged to come and study; either in the lobby or on the terraces in the warmer months. With an abundance of cozy seating and floor outlets, you can get a lot done when studying at the Stanley! 

During finals week each semester, the Stanley does offer special "Study at the Stanley" sessions. These sessions run while the museum is open, and feature free snacks and hot beverages, assorted office and study supplies, and stress-relief activities and tools.
