The Upper Newport Bay - Peter and Mary Muth Interpretive Center is located in the County's premier nature preserve, keeping conservation and the preservation of the site's natural beauty at the forefront of the design.

The Center is a model for all other Southern California facilities of its kind. It sets new standards for protecting and preserving open space and endangered wetlands in a highly populated urban setting.

The Interpretive Center's unique earth sheltered architecture keeps it hidden from view at street level, while simultaneously creating a feast for the eye once visitors reach the main entrance.

The Mission Statement for the new Upper Newport Bay - Peter and Mary Muth Interpretive Center best summarizes its commitment to the community:

"To promote and support the protection and preservation of California Coastal Wetlands through environmental education."
