Noah’s Ark at the Skirball has returned! This award-winning children’s and family destination invites visitors of all generations to play, climb, build, explore, make believe, and make friends—all while exploring an eight-thousand-square-foot wooden ark, filled to the rafters with whimsical animals and new storm clouds that will spark your senses. Share in a timeless story—and together envision a better world.

Imagine yourself immersed in a favorite childhood tale, which has parallels in cultures all over the world. Conduct a storm, help construct the Ark, and bask in the glow of a beautiful rainbow. Mingle with hundreds of fancifully handcrafted animals—from cuddly companions to life-sized puppets—all crafted from recycled materials and everyday objects, including baseball mitts, mop heads, and rearview mirrors.

After your hour aboard the Ark, experience surprise interactions and drop-in activities outdoors. Meet a puppet or two, hear a story in the amphitheater, explore outdoor pathways, or create a take-home art project.

“Extraordinary … A celebration of play, inspiring fascination, reviving wonder.”—The New York Times
