Relax in a woodland cottage where famed naturalist John James Audubon studied many birds, the subjects of his paintings, during the time he lived in Henderson, from 1810-1819.
The museum interprets Audubon�s life through his art and personal memorabilia, framed within a timeline of world events. The nature center features a wildlife observatory. And a giant bird�s nest is the centerpiece of the Discovery Center, with hands-on exhibits and educational programs.
The museum sells a variety of prints reproduced from the Audubon collection and unique gifts to help you explore nature.
