About Us

Columbus Area Children’s Museum is a nonprofit STEAM-based children’s museum in Columbus, Nebraska, where children ages 0–10 explore, create and learn through the power of play. Since 2024, our events, programming and exhibits–inspired by Columbus-area farms, businesses and the local environment–have given young minds a place to ask questions, test ideas and discover how our community works. Families, donors and community partners help make this hands-on learning possible.
