With the Help of Our Community CDMoD is reopening March 2024, reIMAGINED!
The Children’s Discovery Museum of the Desert (CDMoD) is excited to share that we are reopening in a reimagined way, with our community’s support. We worked with our original exhibitry company to design new experiences and programming that our community expects and deserves. Those designs are being built right now!
Long term, we have five phases to include a reimagination of all three buildings, a building expansion and new construction, as well as an exterior plan. Our goal is to expand our experiences and programming to include all ages and family members.
In Phase One we are reimagining Building One to create a brand new, whimsical, creative, exciting space for our 0-8-year-olds. The space will include creative ways to imagine, express, move, experiment, explore and dream and will be comprised of over 40 new exhibits! Our anticipated opening will be March 25, 2024 and is dependent on community support and fabrication. We have a budget of $3million for this first phase and we are counting on our community to help us get there!
We are grateful to the generous donors who have helped sustain the museum through its closure and throughout the last 23 years. Our future depends on your support. Children’s Discovery Museum of the Desert has been an institution in the valley (in two different locations) for three decades.
We are excited to reopen with Spring Break Camps and field trips and lots and lots of fun!
