History

Irvine Nature Center is a non-profit educational organization, offering pro­grams of environmental studies and natural science to children and adults of the greater Baltimore area. We pro­vide these experiential learning op­portunities in many forms, including: Public Programs for children, families and adults, Field Trips, Nature Birth­day Parties, The Nature Place At Irvine,  Summer Na­ture Camps, Special Events, Green Weddings, and our Ur­ban Education Program. We provide more than 20,000 children and adults with more than 500 program sessions annually.  We also welcome guests to explore our 116 acres of woodlands, wetlands and meadows, enjoy our resident animals and our interactive exhibit hall free of charge.  Irvine has emerged as a leader among Mary­land’s environmental education centers and incorporates a unique and comprehensive focus on the natural science of the Piedmont into its interactive exhibit hall and educational programming.The Nature Preschool at Irvine is a child-centered approach to early childhood education with an emphasis on a balanced curriculum. We develop the "whole child" by focusing on cognitive, physical, social, emotional and creative activities. Our nature-based curriculum benefits learners of all modalities through hands-on experiences both indoors and out.
