Its success sparked the creation of the worldwide children's museum movement, and today the Museum continues its leadership as a world-class institution with deep community roots. A recent expansion designed by Rafael Vinoly doubled the Museum's size, gave New York City its first "green" museum, added several visitor amenities, and introduced all-new exhibitions on the arts, culture, science, and the environment that serve as a gateway for lifelong learning among children, families, and school groups.
