MCM Roadshow

The Madison Children’s Museum Roadshow brings mobile exhibits and maker activities to festivals and neighborhood events throughout our community. Create a miniature work of art to be added to a permanent mural installation at the museum and get inventive with creative fort and structure building activities utilizing unique artist-designed building materials.
