| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM IS THE EIGHTH-LARGEST AQUARIUM IN THE US BASED ON ATTENDANCE. DURING 2017 WE PLAYED HOST TO 859,368 VISITORS TO OUR FACILITY. MORE THAN 69,000 FREE TICKETS WERE DISTRIBUTED THROUGH OUR CONNECTIONS PROGRAM. THESE TICKETS GO TO MORE THAN 300 PARTNER AGENCIES SERVING LOW-INCOME FAMILIES, COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, IMMIGRANT AND REFUGEE COMMUNITIES, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN ADDITION, 39,360 STUDENTS VISITED THE AQUARIUM DURING 2017 THROUGH OUR SCHOOL PROGRAMS, WITH 23,306 OF THEM RECEIVING FREE ADMISSION. THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM IS THE HEART OF THE SEATTLE WATERFRONT AND A DESTINATION FOR RESIDENTS, SCHOOL GROUPS, COMMUNITY GROUPS AND TOURING VISITORS ALIKE. WE SERVE OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH A VARIETY OF CHANNELS, INCLUDING EDUCATION PROGRAMS, VISITOR ENGAGEMENT, CONSERVATION PROJECTS AND RESEARCH INITIATIVES. AS AN INFORMAL SCIENCE EDUCATION CENTER, WE ARE ON THE LEADING EDGE OF CREATING SCIENTIFICALLY-LITERATE AND INFORMED CITIZENS. WE BELIEVE CONSERVATION OF THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT RELIES UPON OUR VISITORS LEAVING US WITH A GREATER RESPECT AND KNOWLEDGE FOR THE OCEAN AND MARINE ANIMALS THAN THEY DID WHEN THEY FIRST ENTERED OUR DOORS. ASSOCIATION OF ZOOS AND AQUARIUMS (AZA) ACCREDITATION: THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM HAS BEEN ACCREDITED BY THE AZA SINCE 1979, WHICH MEANS THAT WE MEET THE HIGHEST STANDARDS FOR ANIMAL CARE AND WELFARE. IN 2017, THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM SUCCESSFULLY SUBMITTED ITS AZA ACCREDITATION RENEWAL, A PROCESS DONE EVERY FIVE YEARS THAT REAFFIRMS THAT THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO USE BEST PRACTICES THROUGH AN INDEPENDENT EVALUATION AND INSPECTION. THE AQUARIUM, ALONG WITH THE WOODLAND PARK ZOO, WILL PLAY HOST TO THE ANNUAL AZA CONFERENCE IN 2018 AND SPENT MUCH OF 2017 PLANNING FOR THE EVENT AND PREPARING MARKETING MATERIALS FOR PRESENTATION AT THE SEPTEMBER 2017 CONFERENCE IN INDIANAPOLIS. CONSERVATION PROGRAMS & PARTNERSHIPS: IN 2017, WE ADOPTED A TRAJECTORY THAT INCLUDES RENEWED FOCUS ON THE SALISH SEA AND EXPANSION OF OUR CONSERVATION NARRATIVE TO INCLUDE THE CORAL TRIANGLE, THE MARINE BIODIVERSITY HOTSPOT LOCATED BETWEEN THE PHILIPPINES, INDONESIA AND THE SOLOMON ISLANDS. HAVING THESE ANCHORS ON EITHER SIDE OF THE PACIFIC PROVIDES US WITH AN OPPORTUNITY TO UNDERSTAND AND TELL THE STORY OF PUGET SOUND IN A CRITICAL GLOBAL CONTEXT. WE HIRED ERIN MEYER PH.D. AS OUR NEW DIRECTOR OF CONSERVATION PROGRAMS AND PARTNERSHIPS IN DECEMBER 2017. SHE WILL WORK ALONGSIDE OUR DIRECTORS OF CONSERVATION ENGAGEMENT AND LIFE SCIENCES TO FOCUS OUR PRESENCE IN ON-THE-GROUND CONSERVATION RESEARCH AND PROGRAMS, ELEVATING OUR VOICE IN OCEAN POLICY, AND SHAPING THE EMERGING OCEAN ETHIC IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. ADVANCE CAMPUS EXPANSION: THE AQUARIUM HAS COMPLETED SCHEMATIC DESIGN FOR A NEW BUILDING, THE OCEAN PAVILION, FOCUSED ON THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT OF THE INDO-PACIFIC AND THE CORAL TRIANGLE. PROGRAMMING WILL HIGHLIGHT CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE SALISH SEA AND THE INDO-PACIFIC SHARING A NARRATIVE OF BOTH GLOBAL AND LOCAL TOPICS IN OCEAN HEALTH. WE ARE IN THE FIRST PHASE OF A CAPITAL CAMPAIGN THAT WILL BRING THE STORY OF THE HUMAN-OCEAN CONNECTION ACROSS THE PACIFIC BASIN TO LIFE. OUR $113 MILLION CAMPAIGN WILL PROVIDE FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE OCEAN PAVILION AND AN ANIMAL CARE CENTER. ANIMAL CARE AND RESEARCH: ANIMAL CARE AND STUDY OF THE SPECIES IN OUR CARE IS A FUNDAMENTAL COMPONENT OF THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM AND SUPPORTS THE VERY CORE OF OUR MISSION. OVER THE YEARS, OUR STAFF HAVE ENGAGED IN A VARIETY OF PROJECTS BOTH INDEPENDENTLY AND THROUGH COLLABORATION WITH OTHER PEER ORGANIZATIONS, UNIVERSITIES OR RESEARCH ENTITIES. AS PART OF THAT WORK, WE HAVE UNDERTAKEN MANY LONG-TERM AND CONCURRENT PROJECTS DESIGNED TO EXPAND THE BODY OF KNOWLEDGE IN THE FIELDS OF MARINE BIOLOGY AND MARINE ECOLOGY, FOR WILD AND AQUARIUM ANIMALS. YOUR GENERAL OPERATING GIFT ALLOWS US TO DEDICATE STAFF AND THEIR EXPERTISE TO THESE PROJECTS THAT ADVANCE THE KNOWLEDGE BASE FOR OUR FACILITY, INDUSTRY AND SCIENCE COMMUNITY. OTTER POPULATION STUDIES: OUR STAFF CONTINUED TO WORK WITH STATE AND FEDERAL AGENCY PARTNERS TO GATHER DATA FOR THE ANNUAL SURVEY OF SEA OTTERS ON THE WASHINGTON COAST. OUR STAFF ALSO WORKS ON A FEDERAL PROJECT MONITORING THE OTTER POPULATION GROWTH RATES BY PROVIDING GENETIC AND ENDOCRINE DATA FOR A STATISTICAL MODEL ANALYZING MANY VARIABLES LIKE DIET, WATERSHED INPUTS AND MARINE PRODUCTIVITY. DATA WILL PROVIDE CONTENT FOR IMPORTANT LONGITUDINAL STUDIES REGARDING SEA OTTER ECOLOGY. FOR MORE THAN 16 YEARS WE'VE PARTICIPATED IN THE ANNUAL SURVEY AND RECORDED OVER 1,800 WASHINGTON SEA OTTERS FROM GROUND SURVEYS IN BOTH 2016 AND 2017. MONITORING OUR ANIMALS' HORMONE LEVELS: OUR SCIENTISTS ARE CONCERNED WITH MONITORING HORMONE LEVELS OF ANIMALS IN OUR COLLECTION WITH A FOCUS ON FUR SEALS, SEA OTTERS AND SEABIRDS. HORMONE STUDIES ALLOW US TO MEASURE BIOLOGICAL RESPONSES TO NORMAL SITUATIONS WHILE IN OUR CARE, LIKE REPRODUCTION AND OTHER CHANGES IN LIFE STAGES. THIS RESEARCH WILL HELP BIOLOGISTS TO BETTER UNDERSTAND PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOLOGY. ANNUAL SURVEYS: AQUARIUM STAFF COORDINATE ANNUAL SURVEYS OF ROCKFISH AND GIANT PACIFIC OCTOPUSES IN PUGET SOUND AND OF CORAL REEF SYSTEMS OF THE NORTHWEST COAST OF THE ISLAND OF HAWAII. WORKING WITH STATE RESOURCES DEPARTMENTS AND UNIVERSITIES IN HAWAII, WE COLLECT DATA ON SPECIES PRESENCE AND ABUNDANCE PLUS CAPTURE IMAGES OF THE CORAL REEF FROM YEAR TO YEAR. THE COLLECTED DATA PROVIDES A BASELINE THAT ALLOWS SCIENTISTS TO ASSESS TRENDS AND SPECIES STABILITY OR LOOK FOR DATA GAPS TO ADDRESS IN THE FUTURE. EDUCATION & ENGAGEMENT: THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM OFFERS INFORMAL SCIENCE EDUCATION FOR KIDS AND ADULTS OF ALL AGES. OUR ONGOING PROGRAMS CONTINUE TO DRAW CROWDS AND GARNER ENTHUSIASM FOR OCEAN CONSERVATION FROM PARTICIPANTS.

THESE FREE, FUN-FILLED EVENTS OFFER CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES OR SPECIAL HEALTH CARE NEEDS A CHANCE TO RELAX WHILE EXPLORING OUR EXHIBITS AND ENJOYING AN ASSORTMENT OF TALKS, ACTIVITIES AND DEMONSTRATIONS. AS NEEDED, ACTIVITIES ARE MODIFIED FOR ACCESSIBILITY NEEDS, AND ACCOMMODATIONS ARE MADE FOR SENSORY NEEDS THROUGHOUT OUR EXHIBITS. BEACH NATURALISTS HAVE BECOME AN ATTRACTION ON LOCAL BEACHES. EVERY SUMMER SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY GROUPS SEEK OUT THIS FREE PROGRAM TO SUPPLEMENT THEIR FIELD TRIPS TO THE BEACH. THERE WERE 66,592 CONVERSATIONS WITH THE PUBLIC OVER 23 BEACH DAYS IN 2017. THIS YEAR BEACH NATURALISTS PILOTED AN EFFORT TO MEASURE BEACH VISITORS' EMPATHY TOWARD BEACH LIFE DURING OUR INTERACTIONS WITH VISITORS. THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM IS PARTICIPATING IN A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT TO FOSTER EMPATHY FOR WILDLIFE AS A PATHWAY TO CONSERVATION BEHAVIOR. THE BEACH NATURALIST PROGRAM SUPPORTS THIS WORK BY HELPING PEOPLE TO CONNECT WITH TIDE POOL ANIMALS IN NEW WAYS. BY COLLECTING DATA ON EMPATHIC BEHAVIORS TAKEN BY OUR BEACH VISITORS, WE CAN UNDERSTAND HOW THIS WORK SHAPES INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PEOPLE AND WILDLIFE. CEDAR RIVER SALMON JOURNEY VOLUNTEERS, A TOTAL OF 117 IN 2017, SPOKE WITH 16,306 VISITORS ABOUT SALMON AND THE CEDAR RIVER WATERSHED. THIS IS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF VISITORS IN THE 20 YEAR HISTORY OF THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING THE YEARS PRIOR TO IT BEING HOSTED BY THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM. IT WAS A 35% INCREASE IN VISITORS OVER 2016. THE CEDAR RIVER SALMON JOURNEY PROGRAM HAS BEEN EDUCATING WATERSHED RESIDENTS ABOUT SALMON AND WATERSHED HEALTH SINCE 1998. THE SEATTLE AQUARIUM PROGRAM TRAINS COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS TO ENGAGE THE PUBLIC AT SALMON SPAWNING SITES ALONG IN THE CEDAR RIVER IN THE FALL, AND AT THE HIRAM CHITTENDEN LOCKS IN THE SUMMER. NATURALISTS ALSO PROVIDE INTERPRETATIVE PROGRAMS AT OTHER COMMUNITY EVENTS IN THE BASIN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, REACHING ADDITIONAL AUDIENCES WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN PERSONAL BEHAVIORS, HEALTHY WATERSHEDS AND SALMON. OVER THE LIFETIME OF THE PROGRAM OVER 138,623 VISITORS HAVE COME OUT TO SEE SALMON AND TO LEARN ABOUT WAYS THEY CAN HELP SUPPORT AND PROMOTE SALMON RECOVERY IN OUR WATERSHED. |
