About
This listing is for the parking garage shared by The Smith Center for the Performing Arts and the Discovery Children's Museum in Downtown Las Vegas. While not an attraction itself, it's a useful logistical note for families planning a visit to the Discovery Children's Museum.
The Discovery Children's Museum is one of Las Vegas's top family destinations — a multi-floor, hands-on science and arts museum located at the Smith Center campus on Robin Leach Lane in Downtown Las Vegas. The parking garage is the primary lot for museum visitors and offers validation — confirm at the admissions desk when you arrive to get your parking discounted or covered.
The garage is stroller-accessible with elevators and has covered parking, which is a significant benefit during Las Vegas summers when walking across a surface lot in 110-degree heat with young children is a challenge in itself.
If you're visiting the Discovery Children's Museum, use this garage. Street parking in the area is limited, and the garage's proximity to the museum entrance makes it the most practical option for families with strollers or multiple children.
