Preserve The Wonder Capital Campaign Begins at River Museum

The staff at the National Mississippi River Museum and Aquarium have kicked off a $12.75 million Preserve the Wonder capital campaign to fund a variety of updates and revealed that more than $9 million already has been raised. The next step is the Preserve the Wonder campaign, which will fund a variety of projects. The top projects include the Mississippi River Discovery Center, such as an expanded habitat for the otters that will double the animals’ space and offer more up-close experiences for visitors. The paddlefish exhibit also will be relocated and updated to be more immersive and interactive. Many other projects will be included.
