Mission & History

Our Mission

WOW! Children’s Museum is dedicated to providing educational, interactive exhibits, programs, and activities for all children – bringing families together in a creative environment that sparks imagination, inspires learning through play, and supports school readiness.

Our Goals

1. Challenging children to learn in new ways while exploring interactive exhibits at their own pace in a safe environment

2. Providing science, art, and cultural programs to supplement the K-5 school curriculum and are accessible to all children in our community

3. Engaging parents and caregivers as a child’s first teacher

Our Vision

Our vision is for WOW! to be a connecting center for families, schools, and community artists, cultural leaders, performers. This will provide our community with an affordable resource to help young children do their best in school, realize their talents and interests in the arts and sciences, and build self-confidence and social skills needed in life.  This will also provide families with a center for quality time together, where adults can learn about their children’s skills and interests with them.
