After viewing the art, visitors won't want to miss the new multimedia theaters at the Cook Center. The new shows feature Dr. Nate, a scientist who takes a fun approach to explaining how technology helps us generate the electricity we need for our homes and businesses. A 26-foot, rotating model of the Cook Nuclear Plant is also part of the tour. Outdoors, visitors may stroll the Cook Center's terraced gardens and relax by Lake Michigan. Or they may enjoy a rigorous hike along three nature trails through the forest, dunes and wetland on the Cook Center campus.
Educational signs describe points of interest along the way.
Vending machines and a picnic area are also available to visitors. The Cook Energy Information Center is located on Red Arrow Highway. Tour buses, groups, and organizations are welcome.
