Nurture Nature Center, a multi-purpose facility located in Easton, Pennsylvania’s historic downtown, is a joint project of Nurture Nature Foundation, a nonprofit headquartered in New York, and Nurture Nature Center, Inc., a Pennsylvania-based non-profit organization.

Together, these two organizations are creating a dynamic community facility that includes a science theatre, and space for community workshops, meetings and elegant events. NNC uses science and art to engage people in discussion about the critical issues facing people and the places they live. NNC’s staff have gained a national reputation for its public education about flooding – an issue of urgent local and national importance - and the center hosts a variety of educational programs and opportunities for dialogue and engagement about issues related to water resources. NNC is home to three art galleries with rotating shows from local, regional, national and international artists, and the center also hosts programming and promotes engagement in local and regional community projects, developments and issues.

NNC’s Science Theatre and visitors’ area includes the famed Science on a Sphere® (SOS) exhibit developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, along with a variety of art and educational exhibits related to flooding, rivers and river life. NNC is one of 70 sites around the world to host an SOS exhibit.
