Long Island Children's Museum
Long Island Children's Museum, Children's museum in Garden City, United States
The Long Island Children's Museum contains fourteen galleries with interactive exhibits, three workshop studios, and a theater that seats 150 visitors.
The museum opened in 1993 following discussions among Long Island educators and parents, initially operating in a 5,400-square-foot space at the former Newsday building.
The facility hosts regular live theater performances, music classes, and creative movement activities to engage children through artistic expression and educational entertainment.
The museum welcomes over 250,000 visitors annually and provides wheelchair accessibility throughout its 40,000-square-foot facility, with special rates for groups and families.
Adjacent to the museum stands Nunley's Carousel, a historical merry-go-round that operates on separate schedules and provides additional entertainment for visitors.
