The World & Me: Life ON and IN the Ocean!
Kids & FamiliesSaturday, August 2, 2025, 10am – 12pm EDT

Join us for a special The World & Me as we explore life IN and ON the ocean with our friends from Living Classrooms! Come learn from educators about sailors, working on a boat, how boats communicate with one another, and where you can visit the Mildred Belle, a Chesapeake Bay buyboat. Look up close at oysters and specimens from our museum's collections while being inspired to design your own postage stamp in celebration of buyboats like the Mildred Belle.
