Missing the Beach?

Beach season has not quite arrived, but it is still possible to get the shore experience. Our audiovisual design abilities coupled with the visual displays of the exhibit produced a replicated experience of walking along the shoreline of an ocean, from the boardwalk to the creatures buried beneath the sand dunes. This interactive experience is called the “Living Seashore.” Before the exhibit could open it was highly anticipated by the public. ABC 2 news covered special sneak peak tours in February of 2015, and the display’s debut in May 2015. The National Aquarium calls it their “most interactive exhibit yet.” The redesigned habitat includes a touch pool with five different animals, tide lines, and geographic knowledge that one could not grasp during a typical beach visit.
