SHEDD KNOWS THAT WHEN PEOPLE EXPERIENCE AQUATIC ANIMALS UP CLOSE, IT MOTIVATES AN EMOTIONAL, EMPATHETIC RESPONSE THAT SHIFTS ATTITUDES AND FOSTERS A PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR STEWARDSHIP OF LOCAL WATERS, GLOBAL OCEANS, AND WILDLIFE. SHEDD IS COMMITTED TO BEING ONE OF CHICAGO'S MOST ACCESSIBLE CULTURAL INSTITUTIONS, OFFERING ILLINOIS RESIDENT FREE DAYS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, FREE ADMISSION EVERY DAY AS THE NATION'S FIRST AQUARIUM TO JOIN THE MUSEUMS (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O) FOR ALL PROGRAM, AN EVERYDAY DISCOUNT FOR CHICAGO RESIDENTS, STUDENTS AND SENIOR CITIZENS, AND FREE ADMISSION FOR TEACHERS, POLICE AND FIRE PERSONNEL, AND ACTIVE-DUTY MILITARY.
