CENTER OF WONDER The Center of Wonder supports the discovery of wonder through experiential programs in science and the arts.
Our Ambassador program hires wonder entrepreneurs who display a passion to enlighten our community through innovative grass-roots programs. The Center of Wonder currently supports two Ambassadors. Bland Hoke is developing a public art program for the community after several months of installing innovative public art projects; Brigid Sinram began her fellowship in January and has been providing free nature-based education for middle to low-income children and families in collaboration with other organizations.
Our special events are designed to stir the imagination with presentations by explorers, storytellers, photographers, scientific pioneers and visionaries from all parts of the globe. Wonder speakers: embody the spirit of discovery, empower people to envision change and inspire audiences to feel connected to something bigger than themselves. To date we have hosted: Wade Davis, Matthieu Ricard, Dr. Nalini Nadkarni, David Sobel, Rory Stewart, Richard Speedy, David Levy, Broughton Coburn, the Nagi Gompa Nuns and the Eagle Spirit Dancers.
