An exciting new addition is on the horizon at the recently renovated Wonder Works Children’s Museum. Thanks to a generous gift from the T. Kendall Hunt Family Foundation, Wonder Works is launching an interactive experience that will invite children to experiment with airflow, explore scientific concepts, and discover the excitement of STEM learning through hands-on play. The new Air Flow Tunnel Wall exhibit is being designed now and expected to be ready early 2027.Â
Wonder Works Children’s Museum is driven by an almost 30-year legacy and commitment to the belief that every child deserves the chance to develop the intellectual, creative, and interpersonal skills that only happen through play. Through free and deeply reduced admission opportunities, the museum works to welcome families of all backgrounds and circumstances, creating a space where every child can discover, imagine, and grow.
“We’re a small but mighty museum with a big mission: making sure ALL children have opportunities to learn through play,” says Executive Director Rachel Weber. “From music, dance, and movement to science, sensory exploration, and special guest performers, we want every family to feel welcome and every child to find something that sparks and develops their curiosity, passion, and mind.”
Play is a must, it’s how children learn, grow, and make sense of the world around them. Every moment of play builds confidence, sparks creativity, nurtures relationships, and opens the door to joyful discoveries that last a lifetime.
As a nonprofit organization, Wonder Works relies on community generosity to keep play accessible and bring innovative learning experiences to life. This holiday season, give the gift of discovery at www.wonder-works.org/give and help make play possible for ALL children.
