Creative, Family-Friendly Fishy Game Night!
Perfect for friends and families of all ages, this interactive game night invites you to team up and test your fish knowledge — and your doodling skills.
Join us for a free community science lesson and activity in our Science Discovery Classroom! Dive into the hidden sensory worlds of ocean animals through hands-on activities that explore how marine life sees, hears, smells, feels, and navigates underwater. Participants will discover that the human experience is only a small fraction of what exists in nature, as many animals can sense things we can barely imagine—from colors beyond our vision to Earth’s magnetic field.
All ages welcome!
Join us for a free community science lesson and activity in our Science Discovery Classroom! Explore the fascinating lives of fish through their life cycles, feeding strategies, communication, cooperation, and survival behaviors. Participants will discover that fish are far more complex than they may seem, using social interactions, sensory cues, and learned behaviors to navigate the challenges of life in the ocean.
All ages welcome!
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.
Join us for a free community science lesson and activity in our Science Discovery Classroom! Explore the incredible colors and patterns of marine life and the many roles they play in survival. Participants will discover how fish use color for camouflage, communication, warning signals, mate attraction, and recognition. 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.
All ages welcome!
Octopuses, squid, and cuttlefish take center stage in this fun and interactive evening. Learn about these incredible ocean creatures and their amazing adaptations, then get creative with a Socktopus craft workshop and leave with your very own handmade cephalopod friend.
