The museum is expected to open in 2027. It will be the first museum built on the American S.T.E.A.M. model and will benefit all Israel children and tourists. In the interim, it is planning to open a mobile makerspace unit to support the well-being of children displaced/relocated by the war. In 2023, the first phase of exhibition designs, which will be the heart of the museum, were completed to the point that they can now be finalized as specifications and then sent out for bid. This will take approximately 10 months - 1 year. Architectural plans were revised in accordance with the exhibition design. During this time, initial plans and all materials required to raise capital funds were being developed. 220000 220000 220000 Laya Jackson President and Treasurer 50 0 0 0 Mary Ellen Weissman Trustee 5 0 0 0 Eli Barry Kalfon Secretary 5 0 0 0 Barbara Katch Trustee 6 0 0 0 Seema Gersten Trustee 2 0 Diane Dolinsky-Pickar Trustee 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 CA CO FL NV NY PA Friends of Children's Museum of the Galilee Inc 848 North Rainbow Drive room 665 Las Vegas NV 89107 3033310050 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 46428 46428 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 46428 46428 46428 112 112 0 0 0 0 46540 0 X 60122 573418 48887 682427 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 60122 573418 48887 682427 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 682427 0 112 112 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 112 112 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 60122 573418 48999 682539 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 10 Children's Museum of the Galilee applied for two grants in 2023, one in March for $150,000 and one in August for $70,000 to fund architectural and exhibit design, ongoing operations, and fundraising for the Museum.
