  • Visit Thinkery - The Austin Childrens Museum

    Founded in 1983 by a group of Austin parents and educators, Thinkery has established itself as a leading nonprofit children's museum dedicated to reimagining the joy of learning. Evolving from the Austin Children's Museum, Thinkery now spans 40,000 square feet of engaging indoor and outdoor learning environments. Its commitment to the Austin community is evident in its continuous growth and provision of innovative educational and cultural opportunities aimed at children's development through play.

    Over the decades, Thinkery has significantly expanded its reach beyond its Mueller museum walls, promoting STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) learning experiences that are backed by thorough research. Through the STEAM Learning Institute, Thinkery emphasizes the value of inclusive, play-based learning and its critical role in fostering children's ability to thrive. By conducting inclusive research and offering professional development, Thinkery ensures that its mission touches the lives of an even broader audience within Central Texas and beyond, supporting a thriving future generation.
