Masks are required at Thinkery.
Most of our visitors are children who are still too young to be vaccinated. Because of that (and the number of still-unvaccinated adults and teens we serve), Thinkery requires masks for all staff and visitors older than 24 months.
If you or any member of your group are not able to wear a mask for any reason, we invite you to reschedule your visit for a future date when these requirements are no longer in place. READ MORE

We’re a STEAM engine to power kids’ imagination, creativity, and love of learning.
Thinkery is where Austin’s children and their families come to enjoy play-based, inquiry-rich, hands-on learning experiences. In 1983, a group of Austin parents and educators created a space to provide innovative new educational and cultural opportunities to local children.
Over the next three decades and rooted deeply in its commitment to supporting a thriving Austin community, the Austin Children’s Museum would grow and evolve into Thinkery, which today offers 40,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor activities for children and families to learn through play.
Thanks for visiting! We look forward to seeing you again!
