Mississippi Children's Museum - Meridian
In 2016, the Board of Directors of the Mississippi Children's Museum (MCM) approved the establishment of the inaugural satellite location of MCM in Meridian, Mississippi. MCM-Meridian will be an estimated 20,000 square-foot facility, with three galleries of interactive exhibits focused on Literacy, Health and Nutrition, and STEM. JA of Meridian, who has a longstanding commitment to promoting literacy in our community, is proud to be a partner in this endeavor. JA of Meridian has committed both volunteer and financial support to this project, and is the sponsor of an exhibit in the Literacy Gallery. Currently, JA of Meridian partners with MCM-Meridian by assisting with community wide events and activities that promote the same skills the museum will teach through its exhibits.
