The Felix Adler Children’s Discovery Center was first started in 1993 as a tribute to the world famous clown and Clinton native, Felix Adler.  Our mission is to provide a safe and positive environment for families to discover the world by exploring arts, culture, and science through interactive and educational exhibits.

Located in beautiful downtown Clinton, Iowa - our 17,000 square foot building houses more than 20 permanent and travelling interactive exhibits.  From our KAPLA Block Corner to our giant Brio Train Engine, children and adults alike are guaranteed to have a great time! Our two special event rooms also make a great place to have your next party or event!  To learn more, click here.

As part of our commitment to educating children of all ages, we provide many regularly scheduled programs for area children. And don’t forget our amazing gift shop!  Recently remodeled, our gift shop has a variety of fun, unique, and educational items at all price ranges.  To learn more, click here.
