This interactive experience helps build confidence, reduce fears about doctor visits, and spark curiosity about health and wellness.
Stuffie Clinic is organized and led by Ball State University Child Life students and is sponsored by the Knights of Columbus, Muncie. We appreciate their partnership in providing this free community event.
Museum admission is free for all guests from 10 am–5 pm.
