10-12 years ago their back lawn was a great semi-secret dog park in the evenings. We never ever had anyone say anything to us and never saw more than 2 other dogs there.

It was great up until about 5 years ago, I guess it got more popular with less conscientious dog owners and the museum was upset with how much poop was being left. So they banned dogs. That apparently didn't stop people from sneaking their dogs in so they banned everyone and started locking it. Haven't checked really since Covid so don't know how it is currently.

It's open whenever the museum is open! Still no dogs allowed, except for service animals as is required by ADA. You can pop in through the gate on Davis if you can climb stairs. If not, there is a ramp in the front courtyard of the building that will bring you around and onto the garden's terrace.
