FORM 990 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION

“Enrich the community by providing unique hands on experiences for children that ignite their creativity & awaken their curiosity. Our dynamic exhibits & programs will integrate the arts, science, math & literature for children to discover & learn through the power of play.”

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

“Serve families & organizations in the monadnock region. Provide free admissions to local service agencies. We believe the museum has a unique role to play in strengthening families in our community. While our primary focus is always child-led play and development, we also intentionally serve as a valuable third place for parents. We aim to facilitate positive family experiences (pfe): accessible, stress-free moments where children and their adult caregivers can connect deeply. Your support helps us deliver this value by ensuring we can remain a glimmer of hope and joy and a supportive environment. Investing in the museum means investing in family well-being and resilience - a vital function alongside our core educational mission.”
