Dive into a night celebrating our favorite marine marvels and denizens of the deep!
The ocean is filled with so many incredible life forms, and many of us only encounter a small fraction of them. How are these organisms adapted to survive in such a different environment from ours? Answer these questions and more with us as we explore these stories from the sea!
Specimen preparation- As always, our Collections Manager and skinners will be turning dead animals into museum specimens. Ask questions and get hands-on with his dissections and preparations! Specimen preparation will be in room 297.
Live animals- Get up close and personal with some special guests from the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium!
Kid's craft- Create a jellyfish suncatcher! The kid's craft will be in room 283.
Guest speakers- Learn about the Ikkatsu Project's efforts to raise awareness on marine plastic pollution!
This is a free, family-friendly, drop-in event.
