Have you ever wanted to hear the story behind how fish arrive at the UGA Aquarium? Join aquarium curator Lisa Kovalanchik for a behind-the-scenes program to learn about fish and what makes them special, as well as information about individual fish in our aquarium collection. Virtually meet the venomous lionfish, curious triggerfish and adorable baby skates and hear the tales of how they came to live at the aquarium and how we care for them. You will then be invited to write your own fish tale. Bring a piece of paper, something to write with and your storytelling imagination.

These After School at the Aquarium programs will include a mix of art, nature journaling, science demonstrations and virtual animal encounters that provide exciting learning experiences for participants.
