FLIP IN THE NEWS

WHO WE ARE

We operate a children’s museum in Hillsboro, Oregon as well as a mobile museum program that visits schools, libraries, family shelters, and cultural events throughout the Portland Metro Area. We serve children and their families with a special emphasis on children aged 0-10 and families from underserved communities, including low-income families, children with disabilities, immigrants, refugees, people of color, and families that lack access to stable housing.

We invite prospective volunteers of all backgrounds and abilities to get in touch and get involved.

Please email info @flipmuseum.org for more information.

WHY PLAY MATTERS

When children engage in independent, open-ended play, going wherever their imaginations take them, they develop essential skills like critical thinking, emotion management, creativity, leadership, and collaboration.

Play is crucial to healthy development, so it’s a problem that the time children spend playing has declined significantly over the last several decades.

The FLIP Museum is helping solve this play deficit by creating educational play spaces that stimulate children’s curiosity and inspire their imaginations. Because all children deserve enriching play experiences, we strive to make our museums accessible to families and children of all backgrounds and abilities.
