    Hello Museum Junction,

    I am currently conducting research for the Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh, North Carolina. The museum is currently planning for a new exhibit summer 2021 and the team has been developing ways to enforce new COVID-19 safe exhibits.  Specifically, the team has been working on an exhibit that focuses on animating, building, making, and creating. As a children's museum, we emphasize physical interaction between children and exhibitions to enforce learning through play. We would love to hear how other museums are adjusting or creating new exhibitions for kids, and if they have been successfully executed! 


    Thank you.
