Mission
Inspire youth and families to discover more about themselves, their communities and their world through hands-on interactive learning.
Vision
Our vision is to create a welcoming environment that provides a respite for parents and a stimulating experience for children. With a focus on fun and play parents can share with their children in a visit that is educational and relaxing. Through exhibits and programming our aim is to strengthen the bonds of our regional community. We believe that the small size of the museum provides a space for comfortable connections between our guests both young and old. Our events are tailored to enhance those connections and address the needs of our community.

Our exhibits are designed to be engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Our museum space on a single floor in a historic building allows you to track with your children in a stress free environment. Our exhibits are constantly changing and new exhibits are added on a regular basis, so visit often!
