2/19/2013 Discover! Children’s Museum Opens in Twin City Town Center

The Discover! Children’s Museum opened Feb. 9  at the Twin City Town Center in Chehalis.  The museum was the brainchild of Kelly Vanasse and Renell Norquist, who have been working on the project for six years.  The current operation is an experimental project to see if it can sustain the support it needs. Shown here is a girl named  Carrah, stamping up a storm in the art exhibit.

The second- and third-place winners in the coloring contest at the museum take part in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. At left is Emma, who placed second in the contest, and at right is Selah, who took third. Behind Emma is her mother.

Brycen, winner of the coloring contest, gets his handprints set in plaster to mark the special day. The prints will be displayed as a remembrance of the opening.
