Amazement Square, The Rightmire Children's Museum

Amazement Square, The Rightmire Children's Museum, is dedicated to motivating children and adults of all backgrounds toward greater creativity and understanding of themselves and the world through hands-on learning. The Museum's exhibits and educational programs encourage all participants to explore the arts and humanities, culture, science, technology and their interdisciplinary relationships. Located in the historic J.W. Wood Building in downtown Lynchburg, Amazement Square offers four, spacious floors of interactive exhibitions, workshops and educational programming. Amazement Tower, a meandering tangle of pathways, tunnels, illuminating stairs and glass elevator, connects all the Museum's exhibitions, and is the tallest indoor, interactive climbing structure in the United States.
