“Our Underwater Rainforests” with Dr. Olivia Graham
Often called the “rainforests of the Salish Sea,” eelgrass meadows are among the most vital—and overlooked—ecosystems in our region. These underwater plants provide nursery habitat for juvenile salmon, support herring populations, stabilize shorelines, and play a critical role in carbon sequestration. We have acres of it just outside the EWC extending all the way north of Edmonds Underwater Park. Dr. Graham will help everyone understand it’s importance. Like many marine habitats, they face increasing pressures from climate change, pollution, and coastal development.
Subtitles and Closed Captioning will be provided for our guests who are deaf and hard of hearing. The EWC also offers Assistive Listening devices available to check out or connect with your smart phone.
Reserve your seat online ~ walk-ins are welcome the night of the event based on available seating.
ONLINE TICKET SALES END AT 4pm ON THURSDAY, JUNE 11
Special thanks to our program partner The Port of Edmonds and our media sponsor Edmonds Beacon!
