The Trustees of the Pacific were established in 2003 to support the Aquarium of the Pacific’s mission and vision. The Aquarium of the Pacific appreciates the Trustees for their support, leadership, and for serving as exemplary ambassadors.
“I enjoy being a Trustee. I contribute money and I engage with family and friends to get them interested and excited about Aquarium happenings and making a membership commitment. I like talking to and getting to know other Trustees, and getting early insider information.”
Thank you to our committed and dedicated trustees.
