Since 1986 the Leslie Science and Nature Center has offered outstanding environmental education programs for kids and their families.  Our programs are designed to excite young minds, to provide a hands-on environment in which to learn scientific concepts and theories, and to ignite a connection to nature that will enrich and sustain children throughout their lives.  We provide programs to more than 36,000 people every year.

We exist only because of the marvelous generosity of the Leslies and our supporters. We can be faithful to the Leslies’ exemplary legacy only with the help of people like you. The children in our region need the magic, the joy and the confidence produced by programs such as ours. We hope you will continue to help us make that happen.

Thanks! We really appreciate it!
