Patterson Park Audubon Center
Audubon centers are special places in a community that connect people with nature, focusing on the community around the center by providing numerous interactions with the center throughout a child's lifetime. Centers add value to the community by providing high-quality education programs that inspire stewardship of our natural resources and provide staff that serves as role models to encourage civic involvement.
Patterson Park Audubon Center has been actively involved in the community since 2002, providing education programming with schools, recreation centers, and after school programs in Patterson Park. The education staff also provides public programs, including bird walks, Tiny Tot programs, and family and adult programs in the Park for the community. We serve six of the elementary schools around Patterson Park, three different after-school programs, as well as four Baltimore City Public High Schools. We have many partnerships with the community around the park and we also host stewardship opportunities for the schools and communities around the park. Our office is currently located in a storefront office adjacent to the park.
