The Children's Activity Center on the 3rd floor is currently undergoing major changes! The room has been expanded to fit the castle and dungeon, which were formerly located in the banquet space. The walls have been painted and now the museum is starting to raise funds to help with the project.

Fundraising
|
|
The Museum of World Treasures has begun raising funds for the Children's Activity Center. The proceeds for our 2009 fundraiser went toward Phase 1 of the project. Donations will be gladly accepted and will help make our dream of an educational and fun activity center happen.
|
|
Round Up at the Register
|
|
One small way to make a contribution for the Children's Activity Center can be done while purchasing anything in the Museum Store. The museum now has an option to Round Up on all purchases, including admission. If you choose this option, your total will be rounded up to the nearest dollar. All Round Ups will go directly to the Children's Activity Center.
|
|
Buy-A-Bone
|
|
Soon, the museum will have an new way to donate to the Children's Activity Center. "Bones" will be available for purchase in the Museum Store. The "bones" can then be decorated and displayed in the Children's Activity Center. All proceeds will go directly to the Children's Activity Center.
|
|
Donations
|
|
A donation of materials for the Children's Activity Center is another way to help. The museum will also accept a monetary donation of any amount. Remember, every penny counts and will help us reach our goal!
