Tinkerfest at National Children's Museum at National Children's Museum

On October 4 we're hosting our first-ever Tinkerfest, a celebration of hands-on learning and discovery through trial-and-error, experimentation, and curiosity. Enjoy a full day of immersive programs, STEAM showcases, and activities across the Museum and out on Woodrow Wilson Plaza alongside partners like Spark!Lab, Spy Museum, National Building Museum, and General Motors. So get ready to get curious and learn more about Tinkerfest at our website!
