CHILDREN'S CREATIVITY MUSEUM

 

The Children’s Creativity Museum in San Francisco is an innovative art and technology experience for children ages 2-12 and their families.  Its mission is to nurture creativity and collaboration in all children and families, believing that creative expression, innovation, and critical thinking are core to fostering the next generation.

 

EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

The museum's educational approach encourages kids to imagine, create, and share transforming the way they learn. It moves from the conventional approach of play to one of invention, shifts the focus from media consumption to media production, and promotes collaboration over independence and engagement over isolation. These principles are designed to nurture creativity and collaboration..

​

BUILDING ON THE IDEAS OF OTHERS

The educational philosophy stems from three core beliefs:

1. Creativity does not happen in a vacuum
2. Innovation is not an event.  It is a process.
3. A community of diverse learners, thinkers, and doers is critical to building a creative environment
