ABOUT PORT TOWNSEND MARINE SCIENCE CENTER
The Port Townsend Marine Science Center works towards its mission of inspiring conservation of the Salish Sea during summer camps with activities that engage participants in imagination and inquiry. From building animal sculptures out of sand on the beach to surveying for signs of invasive European green crabs, campers create art and make scientific connections with Carolyn, who often uses art as a science communication tool as part of her work as PTMSC’s Education Manager.
