Members are invited to stick with us at the Children’s Museum!
Children’s Museum members and their guests (up to two free guests per active member) can attend a sneak peek of our 2019 travelling exhibition, TapeScape, before it opens to the general public. Guests will get to explore this interactive art installation that sparks creative learning for museum guests of all ages.
The immersive TapeScape experience challenges the ideas of what can be construction materials by using packing tape to make an unpredictable and one-of-a-kind environment for learning and exploration.
This after-hours experience will also feature light refreshments* including ice cream mini cups courtesy of Neon Cone and complimentary beverages from the museum’s Old-Fashioned Refreshment Stand, an opportunity to create a TapeScape-inspired suncatcher, as well as a chance to enter our draw for a museum membership.
*While supplies last

Summoning all castle builders! Builders of all ages are invited to explore, build, and play in the Children’s Museum’s new travelling exhibition—Castle Builder!
In this exhibition, guests are transported to a kingdom where they become castle builders, building their own toy castle brick by brick. In Castle Builder, builders of all ages and skill levels can construct castles, learn about real-world castles and their building secrets, and plan their ideal castle’s defenses. Guests can even explore the inside of the royal castle, test their fortress designs with a catapult, and spot a dragon.
Castle Builder was produced by The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis
