CLUB DISCOVERY Why
is this program so important? Club Discovery is a free
after-school program designed to engage children (both
with and without special needs) in learning through creative
exploration, through the guidance of Museum experts in
the arts and sciences, and through our exhibits. It is
designed to promote independence and socialization.
The Museum works to include children who might not otherwise participate in a Museum experience or a school field trip. Museum experts engage Club Discovery members in activities that include team building and personal discovery, in an effort to help them grow as lifelong museum members and volunteers. The
Museum will achieve its goals for the Club when children with
special needs learn to be comfortable and confident when they
visit and explore any museum environment. After completing Club
Discovery’s program, participating children will receive
a one-year family membership to the Museum. As members, children
and their families may continue to visit the Museum and build
on the educational foundation that was laid during the program. |
