Make a Lasting Impact Through Play and Creativity 
The New Children's Museum is a place to explore art and build community centered in sparking creativity, connection, and belonging for all children and families. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of donors like you to keep our doors open, our studios active, and our programs accessible to everyone. 

Your support helps power: 

• Immersive art installations created by local, regional, and international artists 

• Hands-on studio spaces like Paint + Clay Studios, the Innovators LAB and Artopia: NCM Creative Studios 

• Access programs that ensure more than one-third of our visitors can play and learn at no or reduced cost 

• Community outreach and education, including school visits and our Mass Creativity program 

Whether you give $10 or $500, every dollar helps bring joyful, creative experiences to children in our region. Here's how your donation can make a difference:
