105 MERCILL
Our Future Home
In August of 2023, the Teton County Board of County Commissioners signed a 30 year lease with The Jackson Hole Children's Museum for 5200 square feet of educational space at 105 Mercill Avenue. Mercill is a new mixed residential and commercial building designed to support families, children and our community. We are working to build a childcare facility for ALL families and children. Please join us on this exciting adventure as we work towards a brighter future for our community

Partners:
Our lead architect and design firm is GYDE. GYDE is an award-winning architecture and design firm led by principal architects Peggy Gilday, Nona Yehia, John Stennis and Katherine Koriakin.
Our General Contractor is Big-D Signature. Big-D Signature is leading the way in private estate, luxury multi-family residential, and resort facility construction services nationwide.
Our lead fabricator is Igneous Factory LLC. Igneous has handmade custom skis in Jackson, Wyoming for over 25 years. They set out to make the perfect big mountain freeride powder skis that could withstand an entire season of hard-charging in Jackson Hole, a place notorious for devouring skis.
The Community Foundation of Jackson Hole has played a pivotal role in supporting both JHCM and the Mercill project. They were one of the first seed funders that allowed us to launch Phase 1 of the Mercill campaign and construction. This included hiring a campaign consultant, hiring a museum design firm, and hiring an architect. Of additional value, their grant support helped us secure additional seed funding from local private philanthropic supporters. CFJH has been with us since the very beginning providing both programmatic support, capital support, and institutional support as we expand our capacity in this new facility.
