PHOENIX, AZ (April 4, 2012) – The Children’s Museum of Phoenix, one of the top 10 Children’s Museums in the Country (Parents Magazine, 2011), launched their brand new website today, creating an information portal for users that is easy to navigate, intuitive and provides many opportunities for user interaction. The new website also includes a mobile version and a Spanish language page providing general visitor information.

“Our new site is now truly in line with our philosophy that learning is a joy at the Children’s Museum of Phoenix,” said Marion Wiener, Director of Marketing and Communication for the Museum. “Visitors to the site will see a much more playful design and have an easier and intuitive way of learning about the Museum, and engaging with the Museum on many different levels. The site is also photo rich with pictures of children enjoying themselves in the many Museum spaces.”

The main features of the new site are:

•  Easy navigational tools

• A home page that provides a snapshot of what is happening in the Museum that day

•  Quick links to easily engage with the Museum either by planning a visit, becoming a member, booking a party, or making a donation

The Museum engaged in a formal review of web design companies last Fall and chose award-winning website design and internet marketing company, Fasturtle, to design the site. The company was chosen based on their expertise, reputation in custom website design, superb customer service, and understanding of the Museum’s mission and unique environment.
