Your contribution allows the Museum to remain a trusted source for play based learning and children’s education. Your donation helps create interactive exhibits (and repair the ones that are loved a lot) and educational programs that foster creativity and imagination.

CMAS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization which operates with philanthropic donations from individuals and businesses in addition to fees for services, programs, admission, and membership. The Museum is not State or Federally funded.
