Wetlands Park Friends

Wetlands Art Day
2026-03-21 10:00 - 14:00 UTC | Clark County Wetlands Park, 7050 Wetlands Park Lane, Las Vegas, NV, 89122, United States
Whether you’re an accomplished artist or bringing along an energetic three-year-old (or two!), Wetlands Art Day truly has something for everyone. This year, Wetlands Park Friends will be hosting the “Welcome to the Raccoon Residents” table, where we’ll share fun and fascinating facts about our resident raccoons.
Kids can create their own custom or classic raccoon button to wear during the event and take home, and they’ll also receive a raccoon mask kit that can be completed at the park or later at home. Best of all, the event is free—we can’t wait to see you at Wetlands Art Day! 🦝🎨

BioBlast 2026
2026-04-25 10:00 - 13:00
You know you will have a blast at BioBlast, an event presented by Clark County Parks & Recreation, Clark Count Wetlands Park, and Commissioner Jim Gibson. It’s all about the flora, fauna, and environment found in the Park and in southern Nevada. Visit Science Stations, where guest scientists and naturalists will help you identify fish, bugs, plants, birds, and mammals. Learn about a wide range of topics, including how native species adapt, survive, and thrive in this corner of the driest desert in North America. Celebrate World Migratory Bird Day 2026, which highlights the important role of community science in bird conservation.
Wetlands Park Friends is overseeing the “Mesquite Woodlands Table.” Learn about our important mesquite trees as well as an interesting parasitic relationship they have with mistletoe. Lastly, learn about a bird whose seasonal diet depends on the parasite!
