Avast Ye! An Invitation to a Special Event! 

Ahoy, me hearties!

Ocean Institute invites you to celebrate all things maritime at our inaugural Pirate and Mermaid Ball. 

Specialty libations, appetizers galore, games and challenges for booty and bounty, and merry music will entertain and delight while our tall ships come in from their cannon battles. 

Have a glass of mead while you interact with our magnificent mermaids and playful pirates. Sit by the fire pit and sing along to sea shanties. Or get on the dance floor and shake your mermaid tail.

Dress the part and come as mermaid, come as a pirate, or just come as you are! 

All hand ahoy!
