Are you ready to Monkey Around?
The Curious George™: Let’s Get Curious exhibit is opening Friday, February 11th.

The museum will be CLOSED Sun. Jan. 30th-Thurs. Feb. 10th for exhibit installation.

Celebrate the opening of our newest exhibit, Curious George™: Let’s Get Curious! Explore the gallery that introduces young children into the world of Curious George, leading visitors on a fun, meaningful interactive math, science and engineering-based adventure while emphasizing the central role that parents and caregivers play.

Based on the familiar characters in H.A. and Margret Rey’s classic stories and inspired by the animated television series on PBS KIDS, visitors can operate wheels to help George climb a building, sort and weigh fruits and vegetables at the produce stand, use science skills to putt a hole of mini golf, climb the rocket from George’s space adventure, build a whirligig in the country, and visit the Museum within the Museum.
