The mission of the River Center is to foster a sense of environmental stewardship for the Loxahatchee River’s diverse watershed with quality education programs, exhibits and meaningful events.


The River Center features live aquatic tanks, interactive exhibits, and a touch tank that represent the Loxahatchee River system from a freshwater cypress swamp to seagrass-dominated estuary to marine ecosystems. The center provides a fun, educational opportunity for school children, adults, visitors, and long-time residents to learn about Florida’s first National Wild and Scenic River.

Our Mission is to foster a sense of environmental stewardship for the Loxahatchee River’s diverse watershed with quality education programs, exhibits and meaningful events.

After School Book Club

📖🌱Calling all nature-loving readers!

Join us on Wednesday, September 11th from 4:30 to 6pm for our next afterschool book club for kids in grades 3-8. This month’s book will be THE WILD ROBOT by Peter Brown – just in time for readers to catch the film which comes to theaters on September 27th! This best-selling illustrated novel follows Roz the Robot as she learns how to survive out in nature.

You can find THE WILD ROBOT at our local library or at a bookseller of your choice. Readers should finish the book before the meeting. We will discuss the story, explore the connections between technology and nature, and then make our own robots!

If this program is full, please give us a call. We have a waitlist and can often fit in additional young readers!
