The UW Aquatic Sciences Open House is an annual event, taking place this year on Sunday May 21, organized by Students Explore Aquatic Sciences (SEAS) and hosted by the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences with support from the School of Oceanography, School of Marine and Environmental Affairs, and external partner organizations.
The Open House offers a free and family-friendly afternoon of hands-on learning to celebrate science and research that relates to water. Visitors can experience the UW Fish Collection, the Research Vessel Rachel Carson, and real working science labs here at the university. We also have hands-on activities led by current UW students, staff, postdocs, and faculty across the College of the Environment and by organizations from the greater Seattle area (e.g., foundry10).
Come get your hands wet and learn about the aquatic science happening right here in your backyard—covering everything from freshwater to oceans, microscopic microbes to whales, and everything in between!
