John James Audubon Center

Now Open Wednesday through Sunday

Center Hours

The John James Audubon Center will be closed from December 24th to December 27th in recognition of the Christmas holiday and will reopen on Saturday, December 28th with normal operating hours of 10 am to 4 pm. In addition, we will be closed from December 30th through January 1st in recognition of the New Year holiday and will reopen on Thursday, January 2nd with normal operating hours. We hope that you will enjoy the holidays just as much as we will.

Whether you're a first-time visitor or a longtime friend, there's never been a better time to explore our exhibitions and Fledgling Field nature play area. Bring a friend, bring your family, or just bring yourself—there's plenty to see and do!  

Dogs are NOT allowed in the interior of the park since it is a bird sanctuary and birds see dogs as potential predators. Dogs are allowed on the paved Audubon Loop which encircles the property only!

Grounds are always open free to the public during daylight hours only. There is an admission fee for the Visitor Center and Historic House. The Historic House is only open for guided tours at 1pm (Wednesday Through Sunday). Guided tours must be signed up for and leave promptly from the Visitor Center. For private group tour information please contact the Front Desk at 610-666-5594. 

The property address is: 1201 Pawlings Road, Audubon, PA 19403.

Mission

The mission of the John James Audubon Center is to educate and inspire people to cherish and protect the natural world, by preserving Audubon’s artistic, scientific, and historic legacy and celebrating the conservation movement he inspired while serving the mission of the National Audubon Society (NAS), “to conserve and restore natural ecosystems, focusing on birds, other wildlife, and their habitats for the benefit of humanity and the earth’s biological diversity.”

To arrange a tour of our venue or for information concerning weddings or having a special event on grounds please contact Jeffrey Miller Catering at 610-990-3411 or Audubon@jamcater.com.
