  • Annual Report 2010
    Betty Brinn Children’s Museum Annual Report 2010 Page 1 A door is an invitation to DISCOVER what lies on the other side, especially in the ever-expanding world of a child. Opening doors can lead to new discoveries, ideas, and to a bright future. The Betty Brinn Children’s Museum is one of our community’s most important family resources, providing educational opportunities that benefit almost 200,000 children and adults each year. Our Annual Report highlights just a few of our many accomplishments in 2010 – doors we opened in support of our mission to promote the profound influence of early learning on a child’s success in school, and for a lifetime. National attention about the importance of early childhood development is growing, and research continues to highlight the importance of early learning to school readiness and, in the longer term, to local workforce development and the economic vitality of our nation. In 2010, the Museum continued to strengthen its position as a leader in the emerging field of early education by creating exhibits and programs that reflect current state academic standards, as well as developmental milestones recognized by the National Association for the Education of Young Children and national academic objectives. Although 2010 was one of the most successful years in the Museum’s history, the unexpected closure of the O’Donnell Park garage in June challenged us to address our visitors’ needs and concerns. The Museum was successful in securing convenient and affordable temporary parking for Museum visitors, and we are pleased to share that we finished the year with our second highest attendance since opening.
