Support the Annual Fund

"In joining education and experience, reason and play, creativity and choice, the Museum represents an innovation in supporting developing minds by helping children build confidence in their ability to both shape and respond to the wonders around them. By contributing to the Annual Fund, we as parents can send the message that this is the positive direction we want to see for our children’s education and growth, while simultaneously saying “thank you” for this unique asset in our community."

- Lana Porcello, Annual Fund Donor

The remainder is made up of contributions by generous donors like you. When you support the Museum’s Annual Fund, you help us offer high-quality creative learning opportunities to all Bay Area children.
