Public Fridays at the E.O. Wilson Biophilia Center

The E.O. Wilson Biophilia Center is open to everyone, every Friday, year-round! From 9AM to 2PM, every Friday of the year, we welcome the public to explore our campus, meet our ambassador animals, and discover the incredible natural world of the Florida Panhandle.

Whether you’re a lifelong nature lover or visiting for the very first time, there’s something here for every age and every curiosity. Walk our trails through the longleaf pine forest, step inside our interactive exhibits, and experience the kind of hands-on learning that you simply can’t get anywhere else.

What to Expect Each visit includes access to our indoor exhibits, trail system, and ambassador animal habitats. Activities and animal interactions vary by day, so every visit is a little different, and there’s always something new to discover.
