Marine Science Institute Benefit: Waves of Change

Join us for an evening at Domenico Winery in San Carlos, CA to celebrate the power of marine science education and the community making it possible.
 
Waves of Change brings together supporters and community leaders for a night of food and wine, inspiring stories, and opportunities to invest in the next generation of environmental stewards.
 
Your support helps provide hands-on marine science experiences that connect students to the wonders of the San Francisco Bay and surrounding coast, inspire environmental stewardship, and ensure that every child has the opportunity to learn through exploration, regardless of financial circumstances.
