Curiosity Place, powered by the Great Lakes Children’s Museum, is located in the Grand Traverse Mall. The easiest place to park is on the North side of the building behind TJ Max. A set of double double-doors leads past a mall bathroom, down a short hall, and directly across from the doors of Curiosity Place.
