This month, The New Children’s Museum is teaming up with Nickelodeon to celebrate SpongeBob SquarePants with a special, limited-time Museum takeover filled with art, play, and hands-on fun.

As part of Nickelodeon’s worldwide SpongeBob birthday celebration, we’re transforming the Museum with playful experiences inspired by everyone’s favorite underwater world. From July 11-20, families can explore creative activities, discover surprises throughout the Museum, and experience new ways to think, play, and create together.

Here’s what you’ll discover at NCM:

• Bubble play and interactive experiences
• SpongeBob-inspired artmaking activities
• Slime Time pop-up experiences
• Jellyfish-themed sensory play
• A Museum-wide scavenger hunt
• A special Color of the Day on Loving Dragon
• Fun photo opportunities and playful surprises throughout the Museum

Every corner of the Museum will have something new to discover, making this the perfect time to visit and come back for more.

The Nickelodeon Takeover is included with Museum admission and free for Members.

The Fun Doesn’t Stop There

Our partnership with Nickelodeon continues during Comic-Con week with a special activation in the park across the street from The New Children’s Museum. While the Museum will be closed (July 21-26) during Comic-Con weekend, we’re excited to help bring this experience to our community and look forward to sharing more details soon.

Museum Members: Keep an eye on your inbox! Members will receive an exclusive invitation to a special preview event on Thursday, July 23, offering early access to experience Nickelodeon’s activation before it opens to the public.
