Plans for the water exhibit call for multiple hands-on learning opportunities. “We have a few concepts in design, but the feature piece will be the water table,” said Howard. The table will allow visitors to experience the challenges of sharing water across urban, agricultural, environmental, and recreational uses.”

Children’s Museum of Northern Colorado Gets Boost from Northern Water
The Northern Water Board of Directors has pledged $500,000 to support the development of The Children's Museum of Northern Colorado. The significant contribution underscores Northern Water’s commitment to education, community engagement and water sustainability in Northern Colorado.
The sponsorship will support the development of an interior water exhibit featuring interactive elements to inspire visitors about the vital role water plays in the region. By fostering an understanding of water supply projects, water conservation, stewardship and the environment, the Children's Museum will empower the next generation of Northern Colorado's water enthusiasts.
"We are incredibly grateful for this partnership with the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District," said Ryan Howard, Executive Director of the Children's Museum of Northern Colorado. “It’s vital that our communities understand our unique water supply systems. CMNC would feel incomplete without an exhibit to engage future generations of water policy makers. We could ask for no better partner than Northern Water.”
