Description

The Children’s Museum of Phoenix will debut its new makerspace exhibit - THE WORKSHOP – on Saturday, November 20.  THE WORKSHOP will be open for play through March 20, 2022.

In THE WORKSHOP, children are invited to invent and build through self-facilitated, open-ended discovery. The exhibit offers a hands-on, creative space where children can gather materials, create a blueprint, use tools such as hammers, screwdrivers, saws, nails, measuring tapes, wrenches, levels, wires, drills and more! Young inventors can wear protective goggles, hardhats, and safety vests; workspaces offer workbenches, tables, stools, and recycled materials in addition to other repurposed materials. All inventors will gain confidence and stretch their imagination in a safe environment for risk-taking and prototyping. The Workshop is a space that will empower children to create through inspiration.

Museum Members will be able to preview THE WORKSHOP during Members-Only Extended Play Night on Friday, November 19^th from 4pm to 7pm.

This special new exhibit is outdoors, located in the Museum’s courtyard area which can be accessed from the Museum’s 2nd floor. Admission into The Workshop is free with Museum admission of $16 per person. Members and children under the age of 1 are free. Masks are required for all visitors 2 years of age and up while inside the Museum.  For more information, visit ChildrensMuseumOfPhoenix.org.
