Help us keep the joy of learning-through-play alive

Fuel Curiosity. Spark a Lifetime of Learning.

At the Galveston Children’s Museum, we believe every child deserves a space to imagine, discover, and grow. Through hands-on exhibits and interactive programs, we spark curiosity and foster a lifelong love of learning—one joyful experience at a time.

Your donation makes that possible. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely on community support to keep the museum accessible, safe, and engaging for every child—whether they're building confidence, making new friends, or simply having fun while learning.

Whether you’re an individual, business, or foundation, your gift makes a real difference. Together, we can nurture young minds, uplift families, and empower the next generation of thinkers, dreamers, and doers.

Thank You for Believing in the Power of Play

Your support fuels meaningful experiences that inspire lifelong learning.
