  • The admission cost for non-members is $15 per person. Members and children under 2 years old are free.
  • The museum receives thorough disinfection throughout the day. We are constantly reassessing our exhibits and public spaces and try to go above and beyond in order to keep our staff and guests safe.
  • Effective March 1, 2022- The Children’s Museum has adopted a mask optional policy. The Children’s Museum group still strongly recommends and encourages all students, visitors, and employees to continue wearing masks to support the highest level of safety, even with this new policy in place. The Children’s Museum reserves the right to reinstate masking requirements at any time if the level of positive COVID test results among our employees or student population increases, or the risk of exposure to COVID transmission poses a high risk to our employees, our visitors, and our continued business operations. Museum staff reserve the right to ask non-compliant visitors to leave the facility. Please visit our Visitor page to read additional details about this policy.
  • Because of space and safety concerns, strollers are not recommended in the museum. If your child is not of walking age they should be in a baby sling or carrier that can be carried.
  • We are also asking guests to follow proper social distancing guidelines.
  • ADDITIONAL DISCOUNTS: Member guest-vouchers, discounted admission towards member’s guests, Family Four Packs, Library passes and reciprocal memberships will be honored, but you must call ahead to reserve and process.

The staff and animals at The Children’s Museum are eager to see you! But remember if you are feeling sick or have a fever, please stay home! We know that change can be daunting and hard– we appreciate you working with us to provide a safe way for you and your family to get out and have some fun. By working together, we can continue to bring you the great learning experience you’ve come to know from The Children’s Museum in a safe and healthy environment.

Thank you!
