GivingTuesday is an annual day of giving, encourag GivingTuesday is an annual day of giving, encouraging individuals like you to donate to their favorite charities or non-profits. Over the past 9 years, this idea has grown into a global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity. 

This year we've thought a lot about ACCESSIBILITY. We are always working to ensure that finances don't get in the way of a family's ability to visit the museum, which is why we're proud to offer our monthly Free Days to the community! Free Days (held the second Sunday of each month) allow anyone, regardless of financial means, access to everything we have to offer. We believe the museum's mission of teaching children about the different people and cultures in the world enriches not only the lives of children but parents too. By donating any amount you are comfortable with today, you are helping ensure future families have access to this amazing community resource for years to come. Without your support, our work would not be possible. Thank you!
