Blue Marble Benefit for Aquarium of the Bay

Aquarium of the Bay is a not-for-profit public facility accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, with a mission to protect, restore, and inspire conservation of San Francisco Bay and its watershed from the Sierra to the Sea™ through six institutions under bay.org.  

After decades of serving millions of visitors, scientists and researchers affecting positive science-based environmental policies, bay.org is undergoing a major transformation into an Ecotarium; a world-class immersive, sustainability-driven aquarium, research and climate leadership facility.

Hosted at the Bently Reserve, this black tie/formal event is sure to impress. Dine on sustainable seafood, gourmet bites, and dinner while enjoying the company of conservation minded individuals. Limited quantity pre-event VIP reception tickets available.
