Mobile Children’s Museum
At the heart of the FLIP Museum's innovative approach is our mobile children’s museum, designed to bring the magic of museum learning directly to the community. Recognizing the evolving needs of today's caregivers and the importance of accessibility, our mobile exhibits pop up where children are, ensuring that every child, irrespective of their location or background, has the opportunity to engage, explore, and learn. From interactive play food carts to intricately designed train sets representing Portland's rich locomotive heritage, we continue to build exciting mobile exhibits for the Portland Metropolitan Area.
