The New Children’s Museum (NCM) recently unveiled an 8,600 square foot expansion, adding more art studio space on the third story, an education commons for classroom visits, and additional gallery space. It was the first major renovation at the Downtown museum since it was built in 2008 by architect Rob Quigley.
The footprint of the museum remained the same. To maximize the space, administrative offices, storage areas and back-of-house spaces were converted to be used by visitors under architect Jim Brown, who was brought on to create a low-impact design that honored Quigley’s vision.

“ We really have put our heart and soul into this new space,” said Gabrielle Wyrick
