Join us in welcoming our latest traveling exhibition, Orcas: Our Shared Future. Get up close to Museum collections, take part in hands-on activities, and connect with local organizations working to deepen our understanding of orcas. Explore the powerful connections between orcas, people, and the oceans we share through the lens of science and culture, and discover how you can support efforts to save orca populations and the overall health of our oceans.

This exhibition requires an additional ticket, which can be purchased at any ticket counter or outside of the exhibition gallery, or become a member and see it for FREE!
