About Claudia L. Workman Wildlife Education Center
The center sits on 102 acres in the Forks of Coal State Natural Area, near the point where the Big Coal and Little Coal Rivers meet. Its exhibits cover conservation, game management, forestry, stream restoration, and how to identify native plants and animals. Visitors can also walk the natural area's roughly three miles of trails, which feature interpretive signs and outdoor exhibits. The state Division of Natural Resources received the land as a gift from Jack Workman in 2015, honoring his late wife Claudia. A support foundation formed in 2016 helped fund the exhibits and continues to develop trails and wildlife demonstration areas. The center also hosts seasonal programs such as birding hikes, nature journaling, and plant and mushroom identification walks.
