A playful gala with a purpose!

“Voted “Best Charity Event” in the Shenandoah Valley region by Virginia Living Magazine!”

CURIOSITY

Children are naturally curious and learn through active exploration. That's why authentic, hands-on learning experiences are the basis for all our museum activities.

Creativity

We recognize that all children have unique learning styles.  Our exhibits and programs provide opportunities for auditory, visual and tactile experiences.

COMMUNITY

We highlight the diversity and rich history of our community. EMDM is a community effort and partnership, enhancing quality of life in the Shenandoah Valley.
