After a year of being closed, the Children's Museum Tucson and Children's Museum Oro Valley reopens its doors for in-person visitation.
“We are so excited to hear laughter throughout the Children’s Museum!” Executive Director Hilary Van Alsburg said. “We have spent the past year developing new programs, expanding our exhibits and gearing up for reopening - we are so ready for families to come back to play. Our focus is on fun engagement and welcoming families back to in-person experiences safely.”
The museum will be open from Thursday through Sunday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a one-third limited capacity.
"It's been a long year and it's great to have kids back in the museum and to hear laughing," said Teresa Truelsen.
