Join the Desert Museum and Border Community Alliance to catch a glimpse into the life of twelve-year old female jaguar, Libuéla and her cubs. This screening will be followed by a panel Q&A discussion with the producer and cinematographer Ryan Olinger and staff of local conservation organizations. This event is included with admission.

Explore the connections between art and biodiversity among the beautiful landscapes of Costa Rica. Using nature journaling as a tool for observation and reflection throughout the trip, we will visit key birthplaces of the country’s conservation ethos and explore their legacies of habitat protection and restoration.

Dive into the theme “Water is Life,” as our Spadefoot Splash exhibit lets you explore some of the Museum’s conservation projects and endangered species, all while having fun. Stroll along our nature trail with hands-on activities, get creative with art and mindfulness projects, and don’t forget to splash around in our streamside play zone during your visit.
