Wonder World Discovery Center: A Place Where Curiosity Comes Alive

Wadena deserves a space where imagination, science, art, and innovation come together, a place built for families, dreamers, makers, and future problem-solvers. That’s why we’re creating Wonder World Discovery Center, a nonprofit, interactive learning space filled with STEM adventures, immersive technology, art, music, robotics, RC machines, and more.

This isn’t just a children’s museum.
It’s a launchpad for discovery, designed to ignite creativity in all ages, toddlers through teens (and yes, grownups too).

We’ve already found the perfect building in Wadena.
Now we need your help to unlock the doors and bring every room to life.

What Makes Wonder World Different?

A toddler science lab designed for safe exploration
STEM zones with robotics, coding, and engineering puzzles
A remote-control construction sandbox for hands-on learning
Art, music, and film studios where kids can create
A 360° Immersion Room for virtual field trips and space exploration
A cozy family lounge with free resources for parents

Why We Need You

We're raising $250,000 to:

Purchase the building
Begin construction and installation
Build momentum toward our full $1M goal

Every dollar brings us closer to opening a space that our kids and yours deserve.
A place built not for profit, but for community, creativity, and access.

Together, let’s create something incredible right here in Wadena.
