COMMUNITY OUTREACH

The Golisano Children’s Museum of Naples makes the community a priority. With the support of grant funds, we can dedicate significant resources towards initiatives that enhance education in the lives of all children and families in our community who may not be able to partake in the traditional CMON experience. Through a variety of outreach programs, we strive to make the museum experience accessible to all families. If you are interested in having CMON appear at your community event, please fill out this online form.

Pre-K Programs: CMON conducts outreach visits each year to several preschools in our local area. Our Museum Educators bring hands-on STEAM-based lessons directly into the classroom.

STEAM Night Rental: When a CMON STEAM Night is held at a local school, the space comes alive with interactive science experiments, demonstrations, and educational fun for the entire family. Through the experience, families can visit up to 10 stations providing hands-on activities that take science, technology, engineering, art, and math content to the next level. Each activity is designed to engage the child through play. While kids think they are playing, they are being introduced to new career opportunities while collaborating with family and friends to make exciting discoveries about the world around them.

CMON provides your school with a full curriculum, advertising support, and all materials required to host your STEAM Night. In addition, your school is responsible for on-site event coordination, including, but not limited to, pick-up and return of the kit, on-site set up and breakdown, and providing training materials to the teachers and the adult volunteers facilitating each activity.
