Please Touch Museum in Memorial Hall - local families' destination

Please Touch Museum is located in Memorial Hall, a large nineteenth-century building in Fairmount Park originally built for the 1876 Centennial Exposition and repurposed to house the children's museum when it relocated there in 2008. The museum focuses on hands-on exhibits for young children and is a frequent destination for Philadelphia families, preschool programs, and local birthday parties. Memorial Hall's architecture and the museum's interactive offerings make it a neighborhood fixture in the Centennial District.
