The Irving Archives & Museum and Spark!Lab
The Irving Archives & Museum (801 West Irving Blvd) is a city-run museum dedicated to preserving and interpreting Irving’s local history while connecting it to broader state and national stories. Located in the heart of downtown Irving, the museum serves a
diverse and growing community and emphasizes exhibitions and programs that are accessible, welcoming, and rooted in lived experience.
The museum is designed with families in mind. Visitors of all ages can explore interactive exhibits, hands-on history experiences, and immersive spaces- including a flight simulator and touchable artifacts that bring the past to life. As the only Smithsonian Spark!Lab in Texas, young inventors and their families can step into the role of creator through open-ended, hands-on invention activities.
Monthly Second Saturday programs offer intergenerational activities inspired by current exhibitions, making the museum a place where grandparents, parents, and children can learn and create together. Additional family-friendly offerings include guided tours, seasonal Community Days, and special programs throughout the year.
Whether you’re discovering Irving’s story for the first time or returning to explore something new, the Irving Archives and Museum offers meaningful experiences for visitors of all ages.
