As the school year comes to a close this week, we'd like to share our gratitude for all those who helped make our Afterschool Wonder Club a success!!

Thank you to our kiddos and parents who joined us for fun clubs, including costume design, robotics, science and cooking! 🦸‍♀️🤖🧪👩‍🍳

Thank you to our staff and volunteers who created enriching and exploratory experiences.

Thank you to community members who shared your passion and expertise — we couldn't have done it without you!

And a big thank you to the YES! Fund for helping fund our mission to provide exceptional experiences to the kids in our community.

That's a wrap for Afterschool Wonder Club until next fall! Have a great summer!

Summer is coming!! With it, brings new hours and schedule changes! 🌞

With our Think Big Summer Camp kiddos occupying the little red house Monday-Friday, we have shifted our Open Hours and Preschool Explorations to make room for everyone.

💙 Preschool Explorations will be held every Saturday morning at 10:30am throughout the summer and then will move back to weekdays in the fall.

💚 If you need a little Wonder Workshop in your life this summer (who doesn't?!), you can visit us for Open Hours. We'll be open EVERY Saturday from 10am-3pm and all week long when Summer Camp isn't in session (June 8-12, June 29-July 3 and July 20-24).

✨ Mark your calendars and join us for a summer full of wonder! ✨

On this Thankful Tuesday, we wanted to extend our gratitude to longtime Wonder Workshop friend, Sylvia Beeman, for her consistent nurturing of the garden right outside the museum. Thank you, Sylvia, for donating your time and your talents. We are in awe of the beauty you curate!

Speaking of beautifying, we also want to take a moment to thank and Leadership Manhattan for the hours of hard work you all put into spiffing up our outdoor and indoor spaces during the Day of Caring.

We love our friends and neighbors! 💙

Little ones know instinctively how to stop and smell the roses! They can easily delight in the things we grown-ups can sometimes take for granted — like the wonder and beauty of spring flowers after a long winter!

Join us this Wednesday and Thursday at 10:30am for a blooming good time!
