Wet Lab

When students are not using this space, we open it up to the public and give you a chance to explore and learn.

Many of our school programs take place in the Wet Lab. Students get their hands wet investigating a diverse array of live marine animals with no spinal cords (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 an average school classroom.
