Port Townsend Marine Science Center

The Port Townsend Marine Science Center will complete an exhibition master plan as part of a larger facility improvement project. The expanded and renovated facility will create an accessible, unified, cohesive exhibition experience with strong content linkages and seamless indoor-outdoor integration that gives the feeling of a journey into the Salish Sea. The process of developing the exhibition master plan will involve formative evaluation, including site visits, surveys, focus groups, and consultations with professionals. Representatives of key stakeholder groups, including educators and students, volunteers, marine conservation professionals, and other Salish Sea environmental organizations will provide input on the plan concept and exhibition content. The center intends to inspire responsible stewardship of global oceans through the development of immersive, informative content.
