Energy Efficient Facade Improvements: KidsPlay’s 2026 Neighborhood Assistance Act Project
KidsPlay is pleased to announce that the City of Torrington has approved its 2026 State of Connecticut Neighborhood Assistance Act (NAA) project and we are awaiting state approval. The NAA program provides a strategic opportunity for certain Connecticut businesses to lend critical support to community organizations. It allows businesses to apply for a tax credit equal to 100% of funds invested in this energy conservation project.
KidsPlay is requesting support for energy efficient facade improvements through this year’s program. This project is a continuation of KidsPlay’s past successful Neighborhood Assistance Act projects, which include renovating the new South Gallery and replacing the roof of the Main Gallery. These have made the Museum more energy efficient and sustainable through the support of Connecticut businesses.
This new effort is part of planned improvements to KidsPlay’s facade. These include:
- Installing insulation and energy-efficient windows.
- Creating a consistent facade that spans all three buildings that make up KidsPlay’s campus.
- Improving building accessibility by replacing the Main Entrance doors with new, energy efficient, and compliant models.
Our partners help KidsPlay to be a sustainable anchor in downtown Torrington. Through their support, the Museum will serve children and families for generations to come. By supporting this project, you can bring the benefits of a world-class children’s museum to families throughout our region.
