With everything going online this week, the much-heralded Aquarium of the Pacific is no exception.

With a message from the institution’s President and CEO Jerry R. Schubel, the Aquarium announced an “Aquarium Online Academy” this week.

“As we all struggle with unprecedented times, we at the Aquarium of the Pacific want to do our part to help by providing a way for us all to connect, engage and learn, or offer simply a small diversion,” said Schubel in the statement.

He said the Aquarium team is “pleased to offer the Aquarium Online Academy to bring our educational programming as well as fun and entertaining activities to our community.”

The new online academy can easily be found by going to the homepage of the Aquarium (www.aquariumofpacific.org).

“Here you will find both on-demand videos and activities for all ages and a schedule of interactive live programs with our educators, from grade-specific virtual classroom sessions to engaging segments with our Pacific Pals puppets,” said Schubel.

He said the web page will be updated regularly with new content and live dates as they become available. You can also follow us on our social media channels for live feeds, updates and more.

“We hope you and your family are able to enjoy these offerings and, most importantly, we wish you health and peace.”
