The Aquatic Resources Education Center (AREC) operates under the District Department of the Environment (DOEE) in Anacostia Park, offering a multi-use environmental education platform for Pre-K through 12th-grade students. With a focus on aquatic resources, the center features diverse exhibits of fish, amphibians, reptiles, and invertebrates native to the District and the Chesapeake Bay.
AREC provides engaging field trip opportunities, professional development workshops for educators, and free fishing clinics throughout the year. Supported by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Sport Fish Restoration Program, the center plays a pivotal role in promoting environmental literacy and stewardship within the community.
