FSU Coastal and Marine Lab's Open House - April 20th

FSUCML Open House on April 20th

Maddie Mahood, FSUCML Outreach and Education Coordinator

Join us at the FSU Coastal and Marine Laboratory's Open House on Saturday, April 20th from 10 am - 3 pm! 

Our Open House celebrates FSU’s scientists and their graduate students by providing an opportunity to showcase scientific knowledge of the land and sea. Research labs, public agencies, and community organizations will present their work, and great food will be available from local food trucks.        

Throughout the day you can:

  • Check out the Shark Jaw Display
  • Discover everything you want to know about Deep Sea Corals
  • Hunt for hints about protecting our oceans and coastline in the Scavenger Hunt
  • Try picking up goodies with a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV)
  • Bid on items in the silent auction
  • Eat delicious food and treats from local vendors

Gather your friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues, and take a beautiful drive down to the coast for a FREE day of fun! From tiny tots to the most mature adults and those of us who never quite grew up -- there will be something to educate, fascinate, and entertain everyone! Can't wait to see you!

This event would not be possible without the generosity of our sponsors. This year we are also having a silent auction and we are looking for donated auction items. If you are interested in a sponsorship or donating something for the silent auction, please contact Jared Fuqua at (850) 645-3496 or jfuqua@fsu.edu.
