About
Visitors call it a "treasure not to be missed," and that holds true for anyone interested in the intersection of art and nature. John James Audubon's first American home, Mill Grove, sits on grounds that now include an 18,000-square-foot museum and visitor center. The space balances historic house tours with interactive exhibits like the WOW! Birds gallery, where you can test your wingspan against a bird's. The Drawn from Nature gallery showcases Audubon's famous book, The Birds of America.
The center is a partnership between Montgomery County and Audubon Pennsylvania, and it's open Wednesday through Sunday. Regular weekend programs run for all ages. You'll find free WiFi on site. If you're looking to extend your day, the Morris Arboretum of the University of Pennsylvania is nearby and worth a stop.
