Duluth Children's Museum
The Duluth Children's Museum has served the upper Midwest nearly 80 years. It is the fifth oldest children's museum in the nation. Started in a school classroom by Mable Wing, it served the mission of the organization through a general collection. Moving from a school building to the A. M.
