We would like to thank our generous supporters!


On Summerfest Saturday, the Ocean Explorium welcomed approximately 700 visitors through its doors!  As the Sphere stirred imaginations, local vendors demonstrated ocean technologies used in New Bedford and the oceans beyond.  This overwhelmingly positive turn-out was matched by volunteers, interns and community partners who gave enthusiasm, dedication and energy--creating a unique experience for all.  Thank you!
