We had a great time and we hope you did too! Check back later for more information on next year’s cephalopod celebration.
Check out our giant Pacific octopus webpage for more information on the largest species of octopus. You can also watch Lightning Talks: Cephalopods to learn amazing facts about octopuses and their relatives.
This year, we’ve set a GiveBIG goal of $70,000, and thanks to the generous support of Al & Pat Friedrich, Clint & Barb Bennett, Marshall & Janice Brumer, Michael Klein & Catherine Melfi, and an anonymous donor, every gift will be matched up to $30,000, doubling your impact.
Alert: Avoid ticket scam sites impersonating the Aquarium
We’ve become aware of fraudulent websites impersonating the Seattle Aquarium. These sites may look like ours and have a nearly identical URL. They may even surface in web search results for the Seattle Aquarium. We continue to report these bad actor websites (you can too!) and remind our community that we only have one official website: SeattleAquarium.org.
If a URL is off by a letter, ends in an unusual domain like “.shop,” or just seems—well—fishy, it’s worth one more look.
Adults-only special event!
Thursday, September 10 from 5:30–8:30pm
Join us one evening each month when the Aquarium remains open late just for adults 21+
Today only, your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $25,000 thanks to the generosity of donors Betsy Cadwallader, J & Tim, and Jess & Andy Peet. Help us reach our $50,000 goal!
