Initiatives
As part of its “whole child” philosophy, the museum nurtures every aspect of growing up. Exhibits and programs embrace six key initiatives: arts, culture, science, health, civic engagement, and early learning. For year round visibility and a far reaching sponsorship, businesses may apply their gifts to museum programs, events, and activities that celebrate a specific initiative.
84,000+ Beneficiaries
Exhibit Sponsorship
Madison Children’s Museum is an award-winning organization, which fosters family and community connections, and provides a place where every child can learn through play in an interactive environment. MCM’s hands-on exhibits celebrate and encourage children’s imaginations and the power of play as the cornerstone of learning. Corporate exhibit sponsorship allows MCM to continue developing exhibits that let kids engage in discovery learning and creative play.
84,000 + Visitors
Family Access Program Support
Our Family Access program ensures that learning through play is made accessible to families with cultural, physical, and economic barriers to museum participation. In 2007, Family Access programs served over 28,000, up from 15,000 the previous year. This accomplishment was made possible through an increase in educational outreach programs, parenting classes for struggling single moms, open house events for Head Start students and their families, and subsidized admission programs for families facing economic stress. These landmark efforts demonstrate not only the museum’s ability to meet the needs of our community, but also the museum’s need for outside support.
28,000+ Beneficiaries
Event Sponsorships
Madison Children’s Museum hosts several events throughout the year for which corporate sponsorship is essential to our success. From Juniorpalooza, MCM’s signature summer event, to Kid’s for Peace and the annual Holiday Tea & Trains, Madison Children’s Museum is always planning fun, educational events. We also host Let’s Play, an adult-only fundraiser that lets parents have a chance to play!
