Journey Through White Memorial
The Conservation Center's new Nature Museum takes you on a "Journey Through White Memorial". Exquisite dioramas and spectacular artwork help tell the story of this unique 4,000 acre wildlife refuge - its history and many diverse habitats. Wetlands, fields, old growth forest and upland hardwood forest are depicted with giant photo murals and animal mounts. A special exhibit on the Art of Taxidermy explains how the mounts were made.
A new children's room with books and activities, live snake habitat, beaver dam, fluorescent rock cave, bird sculpture garden, and much more offers a fun and informative experience for the whole family.
Be sure to visit the Museum's Nature Store. Field Guides, bird feeders, entertaining and educational toys, and unique gift items offer great shopping for the holidays and birthdays. Become a member of the WMCC and enjoy a 15% discount on all items over $1.00.
