The wait is over! Join us as we officially celebrate the opening of our new home.
This exciting event isn’t just about a new building, it’s about celebrating our journey and the community members that have made it possible. Over the last 42 years the London Children's Museum has grown from city parks, to old school buildings and now a reimagined factory full of wonder. The opening of our new location is a community achievement we can't wait to celebrate with you.
This event has been financially assisted by the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund of the Government of Ontario through the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Gaming, administered by the Ontario Cultural Attractions Fund Corporation.
