This is an indoor science education space where learners of all ages can get up close and personal with local marine species at our touch tanks, learn about Gloucester's varied marine habitats, climb aboard our kid-sized lobster boat to evaluate the day's catch, and explore a microscopic world in our newly refitted plankton lab. You can also visit our Gorton's Gallery which outlines Gloucester's deep maritime history and our exhibit focused on Stellwagen bank.
