Event Details

Delve into the underwater ecosystem of San Diego’s kelp forest as you learn about algae and other incredible organisms.  Interactive “creature features” will highlight a variety of marine creatures, including invertebrates, fish and sharks. Students will apply what they learn about marine biology as they create an art project using watercolor pencils.

The San Diego Public Library and UC San Diego Extension are proud to bring all Library NExT programming to you for free, thanks to funding provided by the federal government.  In order to keep these programs free, the federal organization—the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Community Development Block Grant program—needs a completed version of the PDF before your student starts the workshop.  All the information collected in this document is confidential and is only used for tracking to provide funds for this program.
