DOVER - Despite the global pandemic and associated challenges, the Children's Museum of New Hampshire has ensured that its educational programs remain accessible to all. One corporate supporter, Liberty Mutual, has recently gifted CMNH a $10,000 grant to support this effort.
"We're proud of our long-term relationship with the Children's Museum of New Hampshire and we're proud to support the Museum and its dedicated staff as they champion equitable access to educational opportunities for children and families in our community," said Matt Keane, Director, Liberty Mutual.
After the museum reopened in September 2020 with a reduced schedule and daily attendance limits to provide a safe space for visitors, most of whom are too young to receive a vaccination, the museum has experienced an 86% reduction in admissions revenue.
"We're so grateful that Liberty Mutual understands the urgent need for high-quality enrichment activities and programming for young children," said Jane Bard, CMNH President. "We continuously field requests from social service agencies for admission passes for their clients, and see a demand from visitors using EBT (food stamps benefits) cards for discounted visits with their children. This grant will make it easier for the Museum to continue serving as an integral economic, educational and cultural resource for the seacoast region
Museum discounts vary and include Military, teacher and EBT discounts, as well as social service agency passes. Information about admission discounts can be found online at https://childrens-museum.org/things-to-do/programs/inreach.
