The Nature Center is the City of Arvada’s environmental education facility. We offer many school and group programs to engage kids with nature. Using the nature trails, wetland areas and prairie ecosystems to explore, we connect thousands of kids with Arvada’s parks to better understand nature.
We also provide programs for everyone with our public programming, from toddlers to adults, to connect all ages in our community with the wonder of nature. From nature art to drop in discoveries to conservation presentations to family campfire series, you can find almost any nature topic. For quick answer, visit our Frequently Asked Questions.

Did you know you can recycle your Christmas trees until January 17th? Recycling them can help your tree can provide mulch for gardens and parks throughout Arvada, plus helps you get rid of your old tree! Make sure it is free of nails, decorations, or hooks before taking it to the drop off locations. Find out more at Arvada.org/recycle-those-christmas-trees.
