Wonderland Children’s Museum

Wonderland Children’s Museum inspires creativity and learning through interactive exhibits and programs for children. Our mission is to foster imagination and community engagement, making learning fun for all ages.

Join us for Pumpkins &amp; Play: A Wonderland Fall Market on October 3rd from 2&ndash;6 PM at the Wright Pavilion in Vernon! 🎃🍂 We&rsquo;re bringing together local vendors, small businesses, makers, and creators for an afternoon filled with fall fun, pumpkins, play, shopping, and family-friendly activities supporting Wonderland Children&rsquo;s Museum.Vendor spaces are $25 each. Vendors are responsible for providing their own table, tent/canopy, displays, chairs, merchandise, and any other supplies needed for their booth. The Wright Pavilion provides bathrooms and electricity if needed. We&rsquo;d love to have vendors offering handmade goods, fall-themed items, food, crafts, children&rsquo;s products, boutique items, services, and other family-friendly products. 🍁 Space is limited, so reserve your vendor spot today! Your participation helps us continue working toward bringing an inclusive children&rsquo;s museum to our community. 💛 If the vendor fee is a financial hardship, please pay what you can&nbsp;

Pumpkins & Play - Vendor Registration

Discovery Patch is a free, whimsical pop-up play event hosted by Wonderland Children&rsquo;s Museum at the Wright Pavilion alongside the farmers market on June 13th.

Volunteer responsibilities may include helping oversee children&rsquo;s activities, assisting families throughout the event space, monitoring play areas for safety, helping vendors or activity stations as needed, and ensuring the event remains a fun, welcoming, and inclusive environment for all attendees. Volunteers may also assist with setup, cleanup, crowd flow, and general event support throughout the event.
