It is that time of year again…DuPage Children’s
Museum is closed for annual maintenance and repair. This is no small task! We are doing more than checking our seat
cushions for coins!
We drag almost every exhibit from its
comfortable space and embark on a deep cleaning of the ENTIRE Museum! All of
the mats in WaterWays are removed,
sprayed down, and cleaned. Each block in
Math Connections is scrubbed. Walls
are painted, the smallest spaces are dusted and sanitized, the books are even
wiped down—one by one.
And EVERYONE is included! Play facilitators;
visitor services, maintenance, and IT staff, administrators; office staff; and
volunteers alike: all join in on the endeavor.
This kind of work definitely takes a group effort! Enjoy some of our
snapshots from a week of cleaning and…yes, FUN!
We are sure to pass any white glove test! Join
us when we re-open on September 11, 2013! Our S.M.A.R.T.Café re-opens September 16, 2013!
