New exhibition at Birch Aquarium: Hold Fast

Immersive new art exhibition Hold Fast at Birch Aquarium. Guests will weave through a labyrinth of cyanotype-printed giant kelp by photo-based artist and marine scientist Oriana Poindexter, dive into the details of local species via gyotaku prints by artist Dwight Hwang and witness up-to-the-minute kelp forest mapping by Scripps Oceanography PhD student Mohammad Sedarat.
Through immersive experiences and the stories of inspiring artists and scientists, Hold Fast invites us to identify how putting our talents to work in the climate crisis can bring us joy while protecting our ocean planet.
Hold Fast is included with general admission. Visit aquarium.ucsd.edu for more information.
