History
Once upon a time there was a boy and girl who discovered a place in their school that was a wonderful museum of fun, learning, and knowledge. A place where they could do things only they could dream about. My Museum, a creative outlet of Quest Academy, is a magical journey where students are able to explore the world around them. Children are able to interact with exhibits that inspires imagination and draws on their creativity to experience what it's like to be a surgeon, an explorer, and even enter the world of their own stories. Best of all, the students at Quest Academy imagined, designed, and created these exciting exhibits as part of their dynamic art class instruction. Under the direction of Quest Academy art teacher and My Museum creative director Gary Mann, students in preschool through third grade contributed to what has become a magical place for curious young people. My Museum is truly a unique endeavor by children, for children.
