The Museum Corner, an interactive exhibit space located in the Children’s Department at the Centereach building, is a specially designed area that features changing hands-on exhibits and programs for children and their families. To enhance the museum experience, vast opportunities for creative expression and intellectual exploration are provided – props for dress-up, science experiments, historical artifacts and art activities. The Museum Corner invites visits by families, schools & community groups to explore, experience, share and create in a safe, fun environment.
Our current exhibit. Outdoor Adventure, is focused on the great outdoors with a focus on Long Island camping, hiking, fishing and paddling. Take an indoor hike and learn how to read a trail map, follow trail markers and use a field guide. Enjoy family time at the “MCPL Campground” featuring a real tent, kayaks, a simulated fire pit and more!
