The Dupage Children's Museum received a $171,355 Project Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Museums for America program to create a bilingual, travel exhibit based on the Questioneers book series. The exhibit will promote STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics) learning and be informed by an advisory group of libraries and children's museum staff. The museum will partner with the Aurora Public Library System to scale the exhibit, produce bilingual texts in English and Spanish, and offer free public access. This grant award will support the museum's efforts to deliver interactive, hands-on learning experiences that ignite interest in STEAM subjects among underrepresented youth.
