About
What is the Delta Children’s Museum?
We are a non- profit civic organization dedicated to providing Mississippi Delta residents (primarily children - and adults when the occasion presents itself) with hands - on, participatory and visual learning experiences in the arts and sciences.
Where is the Museum?
You’re standing on it. Like our ancient mentor Aristotle, we are eripatetic…..wherever our feet take us that is where the museum is! The beauty of our organization is that without a home, without walls (which are confining) we have setup our at - Buster Brown, E. E. Bass, William Alexander Percy Library, Harty Park, yes even the parking lot of the Greenville Mall. Wherever our projects are conducted, wherever you are standing when you talk with interesting citizens, wherever you are when your works or actions carry forth our important work…. That is where the Dlta Children’s Museum is located.
