We meet our mission 359 days a year and continued success depends a great deal on community partnerships. That's where committed supporters like the Findlay family come in. We are delighted to recognize Ian and Jennifer Findlay, and their children Bryce and Carys, for their ongoing investment in the Children's Museum and the communities we serve. We recently asked the Findlay Family to share their reasons for supporting the Children's Museum.
