The Don Harrington Discovery Center is more than just a museum. It's an interactive playground where kids (and adults) can engage in various exhibits. Watch as dinosaurs watch you, or maybe check out an awesome movie about sea monsters in the Space Theater. This attraction features several specialized areas for the younger visitors, including a new preschoolers gallery that is designed exclusively for children 6 years old and younger. Summer camps, specialized classes and other special events make the Don Harrington Discover Center a must-see when you're in Amarillo.

Steer your way to River Breaks Ranch, a family operation that has been in existence for the past 95 years running as a working commercial ranch that produces wheat, cotton, and oil while raising cattle and horses and producing energy from both wind and solar sources. There you will discover that the highly ambitious goal to diversify the operation and allow tourists to experience the ranch in its true form has been realized.    Upon arriving, you will welcomed by “The Barn,” a 5,000 square foot party facility revealing a massive 2,000 square foot screened in porch ushering you into the main dinning area and a beautiful setting to host private parties, conferences, reunions, and weddings. River Breaks further enhances your stay with wagon rides, cattle stampedes, horse racing and team roping making it all unforgettable. 

The schedule is always busy throughout the year with such popular performances as Verdi's Rigoletto as well as specialized engagements that spotlight mariachi music and other cultural influences in the area. The Amarillo Opera constantly strives to deliver unforgettable performances, and at the end of your night at the opera, you won't leave disappointed.
