Frequently Asked Questions

Our exhibits and activities are thoughtfully designed for children ages 1–12. They're also a wonderful opportunity for adults to slow down, engage, and connect through imaginative play, curiosity, and shared discovery.

Everyone is welcome at KiDiMu. We strive to create a space that embraces children and adults of all abilities, backgrounds, and identities, including neurodivergent visitors. We have a "no adults alone" policy unless it's an event just for adults.
