Giving Tuesday 2016

For Giving Tuesday this year, we’re hoping that you’ll learn more about the Lewis & Clark Exploratory Center and our programs–we bring the joys of exploration to children and families throughout Virginia, some of them underserved and all of them ready to explore, learn, and create. We bring nature closer…consider making a gift today! You can also join our mailing list or find out more about our programs by emailing lewisandclark@lewisandclark.org
