The wisdom of a shared vision. Become a Nature Patron and help the Canadian Museum of Nature inspire, connect and explore.

Your personal ongoing support is a strong statement of the importance of the museum's ongoing objective of engaging and educating Canadians about the importance of the natural world as Canada's national natural heritage museum.
