Fantastic Forts

After an extended pandemic closing, Boston Children’s Museum re-opened to the public in May, 2021 and welcomed visitors back to the building with this new exhibit. Fantastic Forts is a hands-on building experience that combines fixed structures and movable panels that visitors assemble to create their own improvised structures.

Hidden within the fixed structures are three fantasy-like dioramas that feature toy figures building and playing in their own imaginary forts. The fixed structures and dioramas set the tone, provide a starting point and inspire visitors to add onto and build whatever they can imagine.
