    Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Exploration Center

    Santa Cruz, CA

    New experiences transport


    visitors to undersea worlds
    AldrichPears worked with Monterey Bay to refocus and
    reinvigorate experiences in the Exploration Center. A key part
    of the interpretive planning phase was a three-day workshop
    to examine the existing experience and brainstorm ways
    to make it more fun and exciting for families. As a result,
    APA made two recommendations: create an immersive
    experience and develop new hands-on activities.
    APA created an exhibit environment that transports visitors
    to the undersea world of the marine sanctuary. Hands-on
    exhibits encourage visitors to get hands-on with activities
    that inspire ocean conservation. The new exhibits activate the
    existing exhibits and space, and complement their visual style.
    Team cohesion between APA and the fabricator
    remained strong during the design-build process. APA
    arranged weekly check-ins and shop visits to achieve
    a balance between quality, cost, function and delivery.
