KidsQuest in the Community
As a non-profit organization KidsQuest is proud to work with and be present in our community. We have created a safe and welcoming place for children and families to play inside the Museum, and we also love to take that experience outside the Museum walls, directly into the community, bringing playful learning experiences filled with creativity, innovation, joy, and imagination to everyone we serve!
