The Creative Kids Museum, a part of the TELUS World of Science is located in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The Children's museum, which opened in October 2006, focuses on hands-on explorations of music, theater and visual arts and is Canada's first hands-on museum dedicated exclusively to the arts. Its location at the science museum allows for arts and science to be explored and understood as one. In April 2008, the museum received a share of a $500,000 grant to increase its environmental programming.

Famous quotes containing the words creative, kids and/or museum:
“Is not the tremendous strength in men of the impulse to creative work in every field precisely due to their feeling of playing a relatively small part in the creation of living beings, which constantly impels them to an overcompensation in achievement?”
—Karen Horney (1885–1952)
“But it’s hard to farm
Between the stumps:
The cows get thin, the milk tastes funny,
The kids grow up and go to college
They don’t come back
the little fir-trees do”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“The back meets the front.”
—Hawaiian saying no. 2650, ‘lelo No’Eau, collected, translated, and annotated by Mary Kawena Pukui, Bishop Museum Press, Hawaii (1983)
