Imagine a place where interactive exhibits and diverse educational programs
spark curiosity, creativity and lifelong learning for children, their families
and the community that supports them.
This is the mission of Discovery Junction Children's Museum, an emerging
museum in Prince William County.
We are a group of educators,
business professionals, and parents who live, work, and play in Prince William
County. We believe that the children in our community deserve a space
devoted to their physical and intellectual development through the most natural
activity of childhood, play. We want a place that celebrates children for
who they are but also allows them to dream about who they may become.
Families should have a place to spend the day together where creative
interactions and learning opportunities are present in each moment.
Teachers need a local destination for field trips that will complement and
reinforce the curriculum being taught in their classrooms. We are excited
to bring Discovery Junction Children's Museum to Prince William County to serve
those purposes. We would love to have you join us in making it happen!
How can you help? In the near future there will many volunteer
opportunities but in the mean time you can learn more about Discovery Junction
by visiting our website at www.discoveryjunction.org. Help us spread the word by
following us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/Discovery-Junction-Childrens-Museum/374497385894306, and share our page with your friends. Visit us on July 10th at Manassas
Mall for Movers and Shakers where your children can interact with our first
activity, Magnetic Creations.
Most importantly, support our
first fundraiser being held on Friday, June 28th and Saturday, June
29th at the Evergreen Fire Department in Haymarket, VA. We are holding Antiquities Children
Portraits. For $10 your child(ren) will
get a 20min photo session with vintage clothing and props and an 8x10 classic
vintage portrait. You can choose to
purchase additional photos in packages but no additional purchase is required. Please visit http://www.discoveryjunction.org/#!antiquities/c1tik to learn more or send any questions to info@discoveryjunction.org
We look forward to working with you to bring
Discovery Junction Children’s Museum to Prince William County!
So excited and eager to help! What times are the photo sessions?

ReplyDeleteIs ok to bring a big group of kids? My mother is a daycare manager and the families would like to have their kids pictures taken. There are 30 kids in the daycare.
ReplyDeleteTanya, what a great idea! I'm sure that we can work something out. When you get a moment send an email to cberger@discoveryjunction.org with your contact information and we'll work with you to make this happen. Thank you so much and we look forward to hearing from you.
