The Children’s Museum, a partnership between Detroit Public Schools and the Detroit Science Center, has long been one of Detroit’s cultural gems. Now part of the Detroit Science Center experience, the Children’s Museum features a collection of more than 100,000 artifacts, a “touch the stars” planetarium; a new pre-school area, and hands-on art and activity stations. The museum offers visitors a unique look at world cultures, art, history and science.
