Seymour Center at Long Marine Lab
Come one, come all to the Marine Masquerade Ball––
Dress up if you wish, be a seal or be a fish!
Hear stories of shipwrecks; come seek pirate treasure.
Create your own ocean mask; aye, there’s a fine pleasure!
The glowing moon jellies insist that you be here,
As does a whale of a skeleton, but please have no fear!
Search ...for wolf eel and blood stars ‘neath dark autumn skies,
Immersed in this tapestry of fun and surprise.
Scavenger hunts, creature crafts, flashlight tours to a whale of a skeleton, and family fun.
Members $4 adults, $3 kids; regular admission applies for the public.
