Children's Museum

The Children's Museum is committed to ensuring that children and their families, regardless of their financial circumstances, can participate in the life-enriching, creative experiences we offer. To this end, the Free2Play Access Program was created, and it has been an important component of the Children's Museum since we first opened our doors to the community over thirty years ago. The Free2Play Access Program brings under-supported children to the Children's Museum for school visits, day camps, special events, and after-school clubs FREE OF CHARGE! The program is open to qualifying Winnipeg schools, registered day cares, and select social service organizations. While the actual number of eligible participants in the Free2Play Access Program is contingent upon funding received through donations from foundations, corporations, and individuals, the Children's Museum strives to reserve 10% of museum programming and special events attendance for Free2Play Access Program participants each year. In 2015, we are pleased to report that 9,113 visitors began sparking their creative learning at the Children's Museum thanks to this meaningful program.
