Ever wonder what Audubon looks like through an artist's eyes? 🎨🌿

We are thrilled to feature 'Around The Audubon', a stunning new art exhibit by local artist Bailey Lundmark, now on display in our auditorium!

Bailey spent three weeks wandering our trails to capture the magic of ACNC on canvas. His artwork explores the beautiful contrasts of the natural world—from grand, sunlit landscapes to small, quiet, shadowy moments hidden along the paths.

Stop inside during your next walk to take in the gallery, support local art, and experience the nature center through a fresh lens. 🖼️✨

🎨 Exhibition Dates: Now through November 1
🕒 Auditorium & Nature Center Hours:
Monday – Saturday: 10am-4:30pm
Sunday: 1-4:30pm

Ever wonder what keeps our animal ambassadors so energetic and healthy? 🥩

For our resident carnivores—from birds of prey to reptiles—a nutrient-rich, meat-based diet is key! Fresh, species-appropriate food keeps their coats shiny, feathers strong, and spirits high so they can keep inspiring everyone who meets them.

Feeding our wild family takes a lot of care and a lot of meals! If you'd like to help keep their bellies full, consider pitching in!

Donate to feed an ambassador today: https://rodentpro.com/charities/donatetocharity/audubon-community-nature-center

Thank you for loving and supporting our animals! ❤️
