New location. New exhibits. Same fun.

 

Gull Wings Children’s Museum has become a unique fixture in our community. Parents who once visited the museum in their youth now bring their own children to experience the museum. However, after nearly three decades, the museum is showing como sacar una tarjeta its age and faces serious challenges. We have outgrown our 6,000 square feet of space. We envision more elaborate exhibits—and simply more of them—which cannot be accommodated in our current space.
