Welcome Center

Welcome CenterThe Welcome Center is your first impression of the museum. Like the whole museum, the Welcome Center is always changing and never dull!

Visitors to The Children's Museum of Indianapolis don't have to worry about the weather or the traffic as they make their way from the parking garage to the museum via a covered Skywalk. The Skywalk connects to a new 39,000-square-foot Welcome Center that provides a host of services for visitors, expanded space for our annual Haunted House, Jolly Days Winter Wonderland and other temporary exhibits and access to a new infoZone library and Museum Store. The thousands of school children who visit the museum each year have a safe entry into the museum with the passenger drop-off area.

Here's what our members can look forward to:
Members-only entrance lanes. Separate entrances and exits for members and school groups make the Welcome Center less crowded and access quicker and easier.
A Members-only counter. Located next to the box office, this convenient counter allows members to pick up will-call tickets, request card replacements, purchase tickets for member events, and purchase guest admission tickets.
A self-service locker room. Visitors can store items here and enjoy a more hands-free museum experience.
Stroller and wheelchair rentals and limited coat check.
Note: Coats won't be necessary on most days since the Skywalk from the garage to the museum is fully enclosed.
Family restrooms in the Welcome Center.
