The 13th Annual Winter Lecture Series was a great success!

Thanks to our wonderful Lecture Series Team for putting on a top-notch lecture series for our local community! 

Four lectures, January through April, highlight the fascinating life in and around shoreline and marine ecosystems. Presentations are free and open to everyone. Donations—always welcome—support Friends’ ongoing efforts to provide outstanding educational programming for our community.
