Overview
Explore our wet classroom
Many of our school programs take place in the Wet Lab. Students get their hands wet by investigating a diverse array of live marine animals without spines (invertebrates). This unique hands-on experience helps students get a new appreciation for seashore life by helping them identify local marine animals and the conservation issues affecting them from a perspective that cannot be matched in the average school classroom. On weekends and some week days when students are not using the spae, we open this classroom to the public and give you a chance to explore and learn.
