Exhibits: Riparian Corridor

This exhibit is a burbling, shady respite near the middle of the Desert Museum grounds. It serves as a reminder that a stream is one of the most precious things you can find in a desert. Looking for a treat? Here's where you'll find the Cottonwood cafe for ice cream and refreshments.
