Looking for Volunteers at the Touch Tank!

Are you interested in marine life? Do you have some time to spare this summer? We're looking for volunteers to help at the marine life touch tank!


Under the supervision of our touch tank coordinator, volunteers teach kids and adults who visit the tank all about the local marine ecosystem. They also care for and handle the creatures of the tank, including sea stars, urchins, anemones, crabs, marine snails, and other invertebrates. You will also have the opportunities to lead story times and other activities.

Volunteers should be friendly, hard-working and enthusiastic about our mission: to inspire passion in people to conserve the marine environment.

The application process is easy! For more information, click here.
