Over 32 years ago, Georgia Sea Grant created a contemporary art collection (now housed at the Georgia Museum of Art) that used artistic vision to communicate coastal science, particularly to an audience living far from the coast. Join the Sea Grant artists as they reunite to share new work highlighting the Georgia coast, continuing a dialogue on how artistic inquiry can benefit science education. Georgia Sea Grant, housed at the University of Georgia, funds research, outreach and educational activities to support the environment and economic health of Georgia’s Coast.
