THE FUTURE OF OCEANS LECTURE SERIES EXPANDED TO 8 PRESENTATIONS AND RETURNED TO A LIVE FORMAT. THERE WERE 2,280 PARTICIPANTS IN THESE AND OTHER PUBLIC PROGRAMS. WHEN NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, THE AQUARIUM FACILITIES ALSO SUPPORT ONGOING CONSERVATION AND RESTORATION EFFORTS SUCH AS THE LARVAL DUNGENESS CRAB RESEARCH PROJECT AND THE PINTO ABALONE RESTORATION PROJECT.

OVER 10,000 PEOPLE VISITED THE NEW LOCATION TO LEARN ABOUT THE WORK OF THE ORGANIZATION, AND FIND LOCALLY MADE, ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE, MARINE-THEMED PRODUCTS IN A UNIQUE RETAIL SETTING.
