As a leader in naturalistic zoological exhibits, the Desert Museum has launched a campaign to create a new Mexican Gray Wolf exhibit on grounds. We are still working towards our fundraising goal of $5M, and need to raise $1.5M more from our community to complete this project. Please join us in making the new Mexican Gray Wolf exhibit possible!

On view now through May 24 in our Baldwin Gallery, this exhibition showcases a diverse range of artwork created by students at all skill levels. From beginners to graduates of the Nature Art Certificate program, the collection highlights a shared dedication to technical mastery and conservation through desert-inspired botanicals and wildlife art.
