Third Thursdays

Third Thursdays is a monthly evening program at the Grand Rapids Children's Museum held from 4 to 8pm. These extended hours give families a chance to explore the museum together in a relaxed evening setting. The August 20 date is part of a regular rotation that also includes other months throughout the year, so you can plan ahead for future visits. It's a great option if you're looking for something to do on a weeknight with kids who enjoy hands-on play and exploration. While you're in the area, take advantage of the Hotel District location and check out other nearby businesses that also participate in the Third Thursdays programming. This makes for a fun evening out downtown where you can mix museum time with other activities in the neighborhood. It's a flexible, low-pressure way to spend time with your children without the pressure of a structured program.
