Ways of Whales

Ways of Whales brings together researchers, advocates, educators and whale lovers for continuing education and networking. In addition to fascinating presentations by experts in their field, the day offers our popular silent auction, an opportunity to socialize with fellow whale enthusiasts, and the chance to visit our Learning Lobby and learn about the great work being done by our Pod Partners.

The event is being held in person at the Coupeville High School Performing Arts Center and virtually on StreamYard. For those not attending in person, be sure to check out our virtual Learning Lobby starting in January; it will be linked here!

Cost: $40/$30 seniors & students

A limited number of full and partial scholarships are available for those
who need them. Please email cindy@orcanetwork.org for more information.

Speakers include:
Howard Garrett, Fred Sharpe, Jared Towers, Kayeloni Scott,
