Join us for 'Below the Surface: Women in Diving',  a casual conversation with a remarkable group of women whose lives, careers, and passions have been shaped by the sea. In the spirit of Women's Dive Day, we're bringing together voices from environmental journalism, marine conservation, dive safety, and beyond for an open, honest discussion about what it means to dive, why it matters, and where it can take you.

Doors open at 6 pm for mingling. Discussion runs 6:15–7 pm. The Center stays open until 8 pm for further conversation and exploration.

They will also learn how some species change color over their lifetime or rapidly shift patterns to blend in, send signals, or respond to their environment.
