The ENC provides transformative experiences through connection with nature. We operate our flagship nature center in Newport Beach (est. 1972), which now includes our Nature Preschool, as well as the Tucker Wildlife Sanctuary in Modjeska Canyon. Both centers serve as a hub for school field trips, scout programs, birthday parties, camps, public programs, and professional development workshops. Our flagship Nature Center and Nature Preschool feature state-of-the-art, platinum LEED certified buildings which serve as an important model for architectural sustainability in our community.
