The success of ImagineU Children’s Museum is the result of a community effort. Its goal is to create a multicultural learning center filled with hands-on scientific, cultural and artistic exhibits for the whole family.
ImagineU Children’s Museum is a member of the Association of Children’s Museums. The museum hosts a variety of interactive events and displays, many of which are free to the public.
Through a grant from the City of Visalia’s Community Arts Program, ImagineU has developed a series of Traveling Trunks for use by area teachers. They contain lesson plans that incorporate visual, tactile and auditory learning tools. These are age-based materials named the Van Gogh Trunk (art, science and social studies); Yokut Native American Trunk (information, artifacts and art projects); Colonial Folk Art Trunk (quilting, weaving, pottery and more); and the Waste Management Trunk for grades K-12 pertaining to recycling and environmental awareness
