Huntsman Marine signs MOU with Bow Seat Ocean Awareness Program

August 30, 2021 – St. Andrews, New Brunswick, Huntsman Marine Science Centre

Huntsman is incredibly pleased to enhance our partnership with Bow Seat Ocean Awareness Programs (Westwood, MA; https://bowseat.org/). Ten years ago Bow Seat was created to uplift diverse youth voices through programming, art exhibitions, publications, and scholarships that advance dialogue and participation in ocean conservation. Each year since then Bow Seat has invited youth from around the world to participate in its Ocean Awareness Contest and creatively explore human impacts on the health of our oceans through visual and performing arts, writing, film, and multimedia.

Huntsman will display Bow Seat youth art submissions within its enhanced Art Gallery space in the Fundy Discovery Aquarium. We plan to change the artwork seasonally and the best part is that each Bow Seat exhibit will be coupled with a silent auction so guests are able to take their favorite items home.

All proceeds collected from each silent auction will be shared between Huntsman and Bow Seat to further advance our respective ocean education, inspiration and conservation efforts.

Our first exhibit is scheduled to open after Labour Day 2021!
