Park staff opened the new visitor center to the public on August 25, 2007. Currently, the new building features several temporary exhibits, a well-stocked Western National Parks Association bookstore, and the park's 27-minute film Destiny at Dawn. The museum exhibits will be installed later this winter. A special event marking the opening of the Washita exhibits has been postponed until the fall of 2008.

Did You Know?
Within the Grand Canyon, the type and abundance of organisms is directly related to the presence or absence of water. The Colorado River and its tributaries, as well as springs, seeps, stock tanks and ephemeral pools provide oases to flora and fauna in this semi-arid southwest desert area.
