The North Iowa Children’s Museum, an Iowa nonprofit corporation and a registered 501(c)(3), inspires children by providing experiential play exhibits and programs that stimulate exploration, learning, development, and imagination.

The Board of Directors is working diligently on a capital campaign to create premier indoor destination with hands-on exhibits that spark a love of learning, curiosity, exploration, and wonder. While pursuing the capital campaign, the North Iowa Children’s Museum has cultivated a robust regional presence through engaging mobile events that have reached approximately 25,000 children and families. These exhibits encourage different learning styles including gross and fine motor engagement, imaginative and dramatic play, and collaboration.

This year we are hamming it up with a Kiss a Pig contest in conjunction with the annual When Pigs Fly Fundraiser. Local celebrities are competing for your vote! The person with the most money raised gets to Kiss a Pig on September 27th at 10am at Plain Ol Pumpkins after the foam pigs fall from the plane.

How to Buy Tickets and Vote:

If you would like to buy a ticket for the foam pig drop select 'Buy Tickets and Vote.' Select the type and quantity. Select continue and complete the fields. On the last page you have the option to vote for your favorite local celebrity to kiss a pig. Simply choose a donation amount and select the picture of your choice celebrity. Select continue- finish and pay!

If you would like to vote for your favorite celebrity and NOT buy a ticket for the pig drop, click "Buy Tickets and Vote' then select "No thanks, I'd just like to donate." Here you can select your favorite celebrity and donate. You can do this as many times as you want to make sure your favorite person kisses the pig!

100% of proceeds of both the Kiss a Pig contest and When Pig Fly tickets sales directly benefit the North Iowa Children's Museum.
