History
Lied Discovery Children's Museum was founded as a nonprofit educational institution in 1984 by the Junior League of Las Vegas and the former Allied Arts Council, and opened to the public in 1990 thanks to the construction of the Las Vegas-Clark County Library building and the generosity of the Lied Foundation Trust. Lied Discovery Children's Museum is now DISCOVERY Children's Museum.
