Marine Science Day

VIMS is thrilled to be hosting our 23rd annual #MarineScienceDay open house event on Saturday, May 31, 2025. For one day a year only, nearly every corner of our campus is open to the public to speak to our scientists and students while getting a behind-the-scenes look at the important research and advisory services VIMS provides to the Commonwealth of Virginia and beyond!

Located in Gloucester Point, this fun-filled family-friendly event features exhibits, children's activities, seining in the York River, tours of our labs and facilities, seafood cooking demonstrations, and more. This event is completely free, open to the public, and takes place rain or shine! All exhibits and timed activities are included with entry. Food and beverages will be available for purchase on site throughout the event. Advance registration is greatly encouraged and appreciated.

More information (including a map and schedule of events) will be available on our website in April: www.vims.edu/msd.
