Now in its 23rd year, the Herricks Cove Wildlife Festival has become one of the largest and most cherished wildlife festivals on the East Coast. It is a celebration of nature, conservation, and community, drawing exhibitors and attendees from across the region. Click here for the full schedule of nature walks, live animal demonstrations, kids’ activities, and presentations by environmental and nature organizations. 

Gates open at 9:30 a.m. and activities are scheduled from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., rain or shine, with a morning bird walk at 7:00 a.m.  The suggested donation is $3.00 for an individual and $5.00 for a family (cash or check made payable to AMAS), but no one is turned away for lack of funds.  Pets are not allowed.
