Audubon Area Community Services, Inc.
Owensboro, Kentucky

John James Audubon, 1785-1848 Audubon Area Community Services is named for John James Audubon, the renowned artist and naturalist. Audubon lived in Henderson, Kentucky, 1810-1819. After failing in business there he moved to Louisville and eventually after that to New York, where he gained fame for his paintings. No other person contributed more to the painting of birds, and much of that work was done while residing in Kentucky.
The Audubon Museum (at Audubon State Park) opened in Henderson, Kentucky, in 1938.
