OCEAN INSTITUTE PRESENTS ITS INAUGURAL VIRTUAL MARITIME FESTIVAL
08.14.20
The Ocean Institute will host its first Virtual Maritime Festival, a multi-layered interactive and educational event, beginning on Saturday, August 15, and culminating with a three-day global stream marathon September 11 to 13.
Replacing the annual Tall Ships Festival, Ocean Institute’s president and CEO Wendy Marshall sees the new virtual event as an annual festival moving forward. “We’re thrilled to be partnering with maritime museums and vessels from around the world to present this exciting streaming event during such extraordinary times. As they say, ‘a rising tide lifts all boats.’” The inaugural virtual event will be complimentary to all participants, with the goal to further education in all things maritime.
Ocean Institute Virtual Maritime Festival Challenges
Saturday, August 15, to Thursday, September 10
The Virtual Maritime Festival kicks off Saturday, August 15, with a Move Your Booty Challenge. This virtual challenge encourages individuals, families, groups and corporate teams to get outdoors and get moving in a fun way. Runners, walkers, paddleboarders, and more are invited to sign up and get moving. Prizes will encourage creativity and fun, while creating excitement for the Ocean Institute Virtual Maritime Festival. Proceeds from this event will support Ocean Institute’s programs at CHOC Children’s (Children’s Hospital Orange County).
A second challenge beginning Saturday, August 15, is Art Aboard, co-presented by Blick Art Materials. Participants will select a challenge from a “Sea Chest of Projects” to express their creativity through art. From sand sketching to sculpting an urchin, participants post their masterpieces online in a competition that highlights the beauty of the sea with prizes given for various categories.
