How We Impact the Community
Our mission is “To spark curiosity through play, while promoting a love of learning.” We fulfill that mission by providing high-quality exploration opportunities for kids, educators, and families in Napa Valley where there is currently a significant lack of child-focused, hands-on experiences. Napa Valley children must be viewed as our community's future.
Our short-term focus is building community for Napa Valley youth via pop-up activations. During Covid we distributed art supplies to youth, providing a thoughtful activity which promoted art as self-expression, and published a 500-piece printed art collective book with the pieces created. Our monthly dance parties in Napa Veteran’s Park bring families together in a safe, creative, fun way.
Long-term, we plan to build a space, operating daily, offering a child-focused center like Bay Area Discovery Museum and Children's Museum of Sonoma County.
Donated money allows us to continue to provide meaningful activations while continuing to plan for our future.
