In a heartfelt tribute to Craig Cullinan, the North Platte Area Children’s Museum has unveiled a vibrant new music room dedicated to his memory. This space celebrates Craig's passion for music and aims to inspire future generations. The museum's newest addition features an array of instruments designed to engage young minds in the joy of creating sound. Through this initiative, the museum hopes to instill in children the belief that everyone possesses a unique musical talent.

Designed by Eagle Scout Thomas Jay, the music room reflects not only Craig's love for music but also his pride as an Eagle Scout. Inside, visitors will find ukuleles, child-sized guitars, a mini drum set, boomwhackers, and even a piano. Additionally, a mysterious donor contributed several percussion instruments, enhancing the collection significantly. Gena Cullinan, Craig's mother, expressed her delight with the design and functionality of the room, emphasizing its role in fostering creativity among children.

The unveiling of the music room coincides with the museum's capital campaign to relocate to a larger facility. The Cullinan family encourages community involvement to help achieve this ambitious goal. By supporting the expansion, individuals can ensure that more children have access to enriching experiences like those offered in the music room. In Gena's words, the new museum would serve as a lasting legacy to Craig's enduring love for music, bringing hope and inspiration to countless young hearts.
