AGENCY INFORMATION (Be Very Brief and Concise) <br /> Please provide the following information about your agency (2 pages OR LESS): <br /> a) Years in Operation, Date of Incorporation (Month/Year): 10 years and 10 months <br /> Agency's Purpose/Mission (no more than a few sentences): With focus on S.T.E.M., the arts, <br /> child health and wellness and emerging literacy, Kidzu's mission is "to inspire children and <br /> the adults in their lives to learn through creative and purposeful play." <br /> Types of Services the Agency Provides (bullet format): <br /> • Kidzu Children's Museum, located in University Place, includes 9 hands-on interactive <br /> exhibit areas, including the only dedicated makerspace in the Carolinas designed <br /> specifically for young children, and a recently opened outdoor learning garden focused on <br /> native plants and pollinators. Kidzu hosts focused learning field trips for school groups <br /> and special programs for children and adults. <br /> • The museum's expert education staff facilitate a rich year-round calendar of programming <br /> focused on the arts, S.T.E.M (science, technology, engineering and math), emerging <br /> literacy and child health and wellness. The programming takes place in the museum and <br /> throughout the community through our"museum in a box" initiatives. <br /> • Kidzu works with many outside individuals and organizations to provide supplemental <br /> enrichment activities for community events and out-of-school time programs. Kidzu has a <br /> roster of over 100 community partners representing academic, scientific, artistic and civic <br /> facets of our community. <br /> • Kidzu provides multiple programs targeted towards supporting underserved communities. <br /> Programs include: once monthly "open access" day at the museum (free admission to all), <br /> STEM and arts based enrichment activities during community celebrations such as <br /> Hargraves Family Fun Day, STEM and arts based programming for out-of-school time <br /> programs, scholarship opportunities for museum based programs and free family <br /> memberships and visitor passes. <br /> b) Agency's History with Providing These Services: <br /> Since 2006, Kidzu has been the leading and primary early learning cultural institution in <br /> Chapel Hill. Since re-locating to University Place in February, 2014, Kidzu has served over <br /> 90,000 visitors annually in the museum and reached over 5,000 children and families <br /> through targeted outreach programming in the community. <br /> c) Other Pertinent Agency Information (Ex. Has the agency experienced any major changes <br /> in the past year? Is there a new Executive Director?Are there new initiatives?) <br /> Kidzu moved into its current location in April, 2015. We expect to stay at this location for the <br /> near future as we determine the location for the museum's permanent, right sized home. <br /> Lisa Van Deman became Kidzu's current Executive Director in January, 2016 after serving <br /> as Interim Executive Director through 2015. Lisa Van Deman has a 20-year career leading <br /> children's museums and is passionate about the impact a children's museum can have on <br /> the quality of life and education of all children and families in our community. <br /> Agency Information 2/9/2017 1:27:17 PM Pago 9 of 30 <br />
