PTM Plays Outside!
We’re getting outside this spring! Warmer weather creates opportunities for children and families to learn about nature and the environment during their visit to the Museum.
Your gift will help us cultivate a lifelong appreciation of nature in our visitors as they learn through play during outdoor programming in the Please Touch Garden this spring.
The Power of Play
Play is not a distraction from serious learning, but an integral part of it. In 1976, the Please Touch Museum opened its doors, becoming the first museum in our region with a focus on young children and their families. It is because of your generosity that these first Museum experiences can continue for generations to come. Make a contribution today!
Make An Impact
We believe every child, regardless of financial resources, should experience the power of learning through play at Please Touch Museum. With your help, we can provide educational initiatives and programs for free or at low cost all year long.
First Wednesdays
This monthly program extends our hours from 4 to 7 p.m. and welcomes all visitors at the deeply discounted admission price of just $2.
Play Without Boundaries
This program offers free admissions to families with autism, learning differences, and other sensory or communication needs.
Ready. Set. School.
New in 2022, this free admission public health awareness program welcomed 10,000 children and families to the Museum for four summer Sundays, learning about healthy practices through play-based experiences.
