Chico Children's Museum Support Fund

Our vision is to cultivate a lifelong love of learning through hands-on, minds-on experiences that celebrate curiosity, connect families and cultivate a sense of unity within our community. Our mission: to learn and connect through play. Chico Children’s Museum is an active member of the Association of Children’s Museums (ACM) and follows the best practices of hundreds of successful children’s museums, both nationally and internationally, while incorporating the incredible artistic talent found locally in Chico, to bring the museum alive. As we grow and expand, we want to offer museum scholarships to underprivileged children, giving them access to discounted/free admission, programs and classes at the museum throughout the year. CCM is conducive to the needs of all children and has a pointed focus on being a place where EVERYONE can safely come enjoy interactive play.
