Monday Evening Reception

The Birch Aquarium sits in a spectacular location overlooking the Pacific Ocean and offers memorable ocean and sunset views. A dazzling variety of marine life in realistic habitats are on display at the facility, the nation's largest marine science museum. More than 350,000 people visit the aquarium and museum each year to experience thousands of sea creatures in 34 special exhibits, including a two-story kelp-forest tank containing fishes and giant marine plants. This is a part of the conference that you will not want to miss.
