North Carolina Children's Museum - The Nest

We are a hands-on museum that features interactive exhibits and educational programs. The North Carolina Children's Museum is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization.

We aim to inspire children and the adults in their lives to learn through creative play. Our vision for the future is to become an innovator in museum-based learning for children and families and one of the best community children's museums in the country - that is, to excel at serving, celebrating and reflecting its community. We believes all children should have access to learning experiences that challenge and delight them and environments that encourage curiosity, creativity, unlimited discovery and safe risk-taking.
