Fishy Fest at the Santa Monica Pier Aquarium - Day 2

Join us for Heal the Bay's Santa Monica Pier Aquarium annual celebration of Halloween and Dia de los Muertos.

Experiment in the mad scientist laboratory; create colorful Dia de los Muertos crafts and masks. Both days will feature a glow -n -the-dark bioluminescent deep-sea experience. Face painting and spooky story times are scheduled throughout the weekend as well. The weekly Saturday story time at 3:30 p.m. is guaranteed to be ghostly.

Shark-themed Sunday will also feature spine-tingling facts about these misunderstood marine creatures and a 3:30 p.m. feeding at the shark exhibit. An Aquarium-staffed photo booth on the Santa Monica Pier directly above the marine science center is the picture-perfect place to snap a shot in costume. Come in costume or make your own Dia de los Muertos calavera mask at the Aquarium. Stay tuned for more event details to come!
