About
The Fairbanks Children’s Museum offers a place for families to interact and connect outside of their home while getting the opportunity to participate as members of our community. We welcomed children and their caregivers from all different backgrounds, ranging from established Fairbanks families to military families having just moved to the state. As one of the largest early childhood education resources in Alaska’s Interior, our programs are built with family connection, child-led learning and discovery in mind. We offer programs, classes, and special events that engage different interests and encourage caregivers to connect with their children through exploration, play, and discovery.
How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference
The mission of the Fairbanks Childrens Museum is to inspire and connect families through discovery and the power of play.
But, what does play mean? For a child, there is no more important job than to play. Playing allows children to interact with others, learn, explore, communicate and make sense of the big and sometimes scary world. At the Fairbanks Children's Museum, children have the opportunity explore the world around them through an array of activities such as role-playing, scientific experiments, art, music, building, sensory, physical movement and water play.
As a non-profit organization, the Fairbanks Children's Museum relies on financial assistance from the community to sustain its daily operations, to innovate and to grow.
