Opened in March 2012, the Aquarium Education Center
(AEC) is the Aquarium’s lecture hall. Located right behind
the Aquarium, the center is open during the same hours. The
AEC also has audio/visual capabilities and can be reserved
for natural science lectures, seminars, and marine science
educational programs. The Aquarium
t h r i v e s due
to the support of local governments, merchants, charitable
foundations and thousands of visitors. Financial and in-kind
support is always greatly appreciated. Additional support
is generated by membership in the Aquarium. Family and
business membership levels are available and applications
are available online.
The 4th Annual AquaFest is the Aquarium’s main
fundraiser. So if you want to have a whole lot
of fun while learning and playing some really
cool games, then head on over to the Aquarium in
Rockport on Saturday, August 1, 2015.
Don’t forget…it’s Marley’s birthday and all he
wants is to get to see YOU!!!
