A MUSEUM WITH FUN EXHIBITS & ART STUDIOS
Portland Children’s Museum is the museum that doesn’t act like a museum. You won’t find any velvet ropes inside, and playing with and touching our exhibits is strongly encouraged. Our main exhibit is the imagination of the children who play here. CLICK HERE TO TAKE THE VIRTUAL TOUR
