Bryan J. Barber II Children’s Stage

The show is on at the newly renovated and dedicated Bryan J. Barber II Children’s Stage. Funded with love by Willie and Gwen Tabb, their family, and friends, this was a complete renovation of the existing drama area. It now includes a wheelchair accessible stage, a working audio control room, and dimmable LED lighting around the stage and mirror. In addition, the costume area has a new and large paper doll activity, featuring our signature KNS kids and hand-drawn costumes from our staff!  ​

New Water Table

Our newest exhibit was installed in Fall of 2021. This custom 16-foot long water table is reminiscent of the Kalamazoo river forks with a bridge/waterfall component modeled after Albion's Cass Street bridge. With four distinct activities and plenty of room for free play, the new water table is a dramatically different experience than the previous water exhibit. Rooted in the principles of child-led play the new Water Table Exhibit allows for creative play for children and families of all ages and abilities.
