Community Hours

Every Tuesday & Sunday


Learn, play, and explore during Community Hours

Tuesday from 3 pm – 7 pm and Sunday from 3 pm-5 pm, Thinkery opens our doors with FREE admission for children and families from all over Central Texas! Donations are always welcomed!

Community Hours are part of Thinkery’s Open Door Initiative, created to give every child a chance to explore STEAM concepts and develop a lifelong love of learning, regardless of means.

Thinkery strives to be an inclusive, friendly, inspiring space to learn for our entire community, regardless of income, mental/physical abilities, ethnicity, nationality, race, sexual orientation, gender expression/identity or family status. By providing accessible experiences to underserved and underrepresented audiences, the museum broadens its ability to equip and inspire the next generation of creative problem solvers.

A limited number of tickets are available for pre-registration online; walk-up admission is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please note: to ensure a safe and enjoyable visit for all guests, Thinkery has a set number of visitors that can be allowed into the museum at any one time.

Learn more about our current health and safety policies.



In order to make your Community Hours visit enjoyable, please observe the following:
  • Stay in close proximity to your child.
  • Shoes are always required.
  • We cannot guarantee admission for Groups traveling by bus or with more than 10 students for Community Nights.
  • Thinkery reserves the right to refuse entry to anyone that poses a threat to the well-being of guests and museum property.   

During Community Hours, admission is FREE, but donations are welcomed.
Please consider making a donation to support our Open Door Initiative, and help us continue providing free and discounted admission to ensure ALL children and families can access Thinkery’s exceptional learning experiences and programs.



Special thanks to our Community Hours supporter:
