February Vacation Programming At Maritime Gloucester
There’s still time to sign up for February school vacation programs. Our educators have designed sessions that combinecrafts and science for a fun hands-on introduction to the mysterious undersea world.
Morning sessions are designed for pre-K through 1st graders (with a parent or guardian). Afternoon drop-off sessions are designed for 2nd through 5th grade students.
Topics range from pre-historic sea creatures to modern fishing technologies, with a look at native plankton species, clever cephalopod adaptive strategies, and the food web.
All programs are $20 each for non-members, $15 for members. Sign up for all programs in a session and receive a 20% discount (one program for free!). Visit our website for program details or to register.
