Donate
Over this past year, Kidzu has found new ways to package our offerings and provide opportunities to safely experience the museum from anywhere. Now, as we welcome families back to the museum, we need your support more than ever. Our Outside the Box campaign provides critical funding for camp scholarships, family and organizational memberships, free outdoor learning programs, and so much more. Think Outside the Box this summer and make creative playful learning experiences a gift for our entire community.

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX!
Children from infants to tweens engage in imaginative, open-ended play experiences combined with learning objectives.
The Arts
Kidzu was designed with artwork from local and regional artists. Those same artists and more collaborate with Kidzu visitors on a weekly basis through programs included with admission.
Literacy
All of our exhibits incorporate books and have literature related to each exhibit area. Burrow in, share a good read, and enjoy storytimes in both English and Spanish.
STEM
Kidzu incorporates Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math components into exhibits and programs. Visitors of all ages can craft with real materials, tinker with real tools and explore new technologies as they create a wealth of creative projects.
Child Health and Wellness
Museum exhibits bring the concepts of gardening to life and celebrate local food and the farm to fork cycle. Gross motor skills are tested giving visitors the opportunity to jump, climb, and stretch.
