Childrens Connect Museum Kicks Off Fundraising Campaign

The ChildrenConnect Museum officially kicked off its inaugural fundraising campaign.

The museum, located on Temple Avenue in downtown Newnan, is a hands-on, play-based museum for children up to age 12, focusing on creativity, exploration, and learning through interactive exhibits and STEM activities.

The Giving Tree mural has spaces for donors to give funds, which are recognized as variously covered leaves,  birdhouses and butterflies.

Special recognition was given to Pamela Prange, founder of the museum; Georgia Shapiro, who was instrumental in saving the historical building; Alyssa Hale from Newnan High School, who painted the mural; and Dr. Ben Popple, for his contributions to the museum.

“Each of these individuals has made it possible for this museum to continue for future generations,” said Maryann Kuhn, museum director.
