We are excited to announce that we'll be hosting our annual Lantern Paddle on August 28th, 2026 from 7-9pm!
Participants decorate and illuminate their boats with lights and lanterns and paddle on Thea Foss Waterway to celebrate and raise awareness for threatened marine species! While the festivities start at 7pm, the paddle will start at 8pm.
This event is free and family-friendly, complete with a lantern craft, music, community partner-hosted tables, and a paddle launch, with access to our museum and touch tanks!
We hope to SEA you there!
