* Please note that there are two garages for the Wells Fargo Center, one onsite and one offsite. Unfortunately, the one onsite has high rates, $4.20 every 10 minutes, with a $42 maximum after two hours. Sorry, the museum cannot validate. The offsite garage, ABM Wells Fargo Center, listed above, costs $11 and provides a free shuttle to the Wells Fargo Center.
The Wells Fargo Center is easily accessible by public transportation. Many buses have a stop at the Center. The closest Metro rail station is Pershing Square.
