This is a far cry from the old protocol which only allowed law enforcement officers working within their jurisdiction to bring guns to the museum.<\/p>\n<p>The Denver Museum of Nature &amp; Science joins other Denver cultural centers that are open to concealed-carry holders including the Denver Art Museum, Denver Botanic Gardens, and Denver Zoo.<\/p>\n<p>Their website has been updated and the policy stating, &#8220;Persons possessing concealed weapons permits that do not fall into one of the above named categories are specifically denied permission to bring weapons into the Museum&#8221; has been removed, along with all signs banning handguns on their property.<\/p>\n<p>The new policy quietly went into effect last December, in time for the holiday season. The museum&#8217;s board of trustees decided to reexamine their concealed-carry ban after the November attacks in Paris, and the following San Bernardino shootings cemented their change of position.<\/p>\n<p>The Denver Business Journal ran an informal poll asking readers if they thought the museum made the right call and the response is overwhelmingly <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/denver\/pulse\/poll\/do-you-agree-with-the-denver-museum-of-nature-sciences-decision-to-allow-permit-holders-to-carry-a-concealed-gun\/18853542?ana=e_du_poll&amp;u=gv2ITufBSuW2kGYl1t4NiQ0265aa52&amp;t=1451531715&amp;r=full\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"denver-science-museum-reverses-course-on-concealed-carry\" title=\"Denver Science Museum Reverses Course on Concealed Carry\">in support of concealed-carry<\/a>.
