GSO Public Lecture Series: Oceans Tell Stories Through People

Join us as the spring Graduate School of Oceanography Public Lecture Series continues!

Immerse yourself in a series of narratives that recenter identity and emotion in our understanding of the world’s oceans, told from a place of maritime culture, deep personal connection, perseverance, hope, and concern. These interconnected narratives will be delivered through an evening of art, music, imagery, and storytelling.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and refreshments will be served. Program begins at 6 p.m.
