In 1956, the museum started as a room in the Wesleyan Conservatory with a few activities for children. In 1964 the museum moved to 4182 Forsyth Road with the construction of the planetarium, a gallery, and workshop. A 1980 addition included most of the museum's infrastructure. The Discovery House, a new lobby and classrooms were added in 2001.
