The Children’s Museum of Phoenix, as a service to community members of the City of Phoenix, aims to provide free or reduced admission access to approximately 75,000 people each year through the Museum’s Every Child Program.
The goal of Every Child is to ensure that all members of the region have the opportunity to attend the Children’s Museum of Phoenix — a place where children and families connect with their community through shared experiences. The program allows low-income or at-risk children and families to access the Museum’s rich learning environment and experience programs and exhibits that reach out to any audience.
The Every Child Program is made possible through the support of generous individuals, corporations, and foundations.
The Museum is free of charge on the first Friday of each month. Learn more

The Museum is a PAL Place!
Partners to Assist in Learning (Pal) and the Children’s Museum of Phoenix have partnered to create a custom Pal Video and digital, mobile-friendly Pal Guide to support visitors with autism, anxiety, and other learning differences. Becoming a “Pal Place”, means that we’re taking steps to offer custom resources that support our visitors with what is sometimes referred to as “non-visible” disabilities, like autism. Check out the video!
