Overview

The fun, inspiring, and educational hands-on art museum for children and families traveling to Mesa, Arizona. Their museum includes popular art and art-inspired activities, while adding science, engineering and design-thinking in the multi-sensory experiences provided with an increased use of technology to support these offerings and even more opportunities for families to create together.

The i.d.e.a. Museum is committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming environment for all visitors, offering a variety of sensory accommodations to ensure a comfortable experience. Sensory Support Backpacks, available for checkout at the front desk, include fidget toys, weighted calming stuffed animals, visual timers, and more to help guests regulate sensory input. Noise-reducing headphones and TheraSpec blue light glasses are also available for those with sensitivities to sound and light, while EnChroma glasses can be checked out to enhance color differentiation for individuals with red-green color blindness. The museum provides two designated quiet spaces—the Infant Care Room in ArtVille and the outdoor Atrium—where guests can take a break from bright lights and noise. Additionally, the i.d.e.a. Museum proudly participates in the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program, offering lanyards and bracelets to visitors who may need extra assistance during their visit.
