Iain Nicolson Audubon Center's unique outdoor, experienced-based education is the heart of what we do. We provide children, families and adults with opportunities to experience the Platte Valley ecosystem and its wildlife by utilizing our indoor and outdoor classrooms, viewing blinds and trails that meander along the Platte River, through wetlands, wooded areas and prairie remnants.
Take a moment to browse through our program offerings and see how we connect nature to a lifetime of learning.
