UPCOMING at mochimu

The Modesto Children’s Museum has so many exciting events and opportunities for learning and discovery for families this season!

Send a child for a day, or even a week, of hands-on exploration and play at Camp MoChiMu this Winter! We are excited to offer Camp MoChiMu as both an a la carte day-camp, or a week-long option!

Or, join us for family-oriented, guided discovery at Try-it-Together Family Workshops and Little Lyricists Lounge with the Modesto Artists Movement in January!

We are also offering limited-time extended hours for additional fun this holiday season! From December 26th - 30th and January 2 - 5, join us from 9:00AM-6:00PM for hours of play and adventure!

Be on the look out for Holiday closures on November 28th, December 25th, and January 1st in addition to adjusted hours on November 27th when MoChiMu will only be open from 10:00AM-1:00PM. The Modesto Children’s Museum is closed on Tuesdays.
