DETAILS
*Both Listening Sessions are FULL* Due to the incredible response we have had for attendance, the Marine Discovery Center will be putting together an internet survey to put out to those who are interested but were unable to attend the sessions in person. In conjunction with the "Water Connects Us All" exhibition on display in the gallery, we are proud to host two listening sessions with the Marine Discovery Center on the art integration strategy for the new center. Listening sessions will explore how art can best be integrated into the facilities, exhibits, and building with the intent of using art's emotional power to help achieve the facility's conservation education goals, inspiring humans to take action to protect and care for wild spaces. Practical consideration about how to fund, select, and care for art installations in an aquarium will also be discussed. Free and open to the public; artists in particular are encouraged to attend. Although the event is free, please register for the session you are interested in so that we can prepare for the correct number of attendees. Saturday, Feb. 8th | 10AM -11:30AM (FULL) Thursday, Feb 20th | 5:30PM- 7:00PM (FULL) Listening sessions will last approximately 90 minutes.
