"Institutions like the Aquarium of the Pacific serve a vital role in
helping us understand-and better care for-the world around us," stated
U.S. Congressman Alan Lowenthal, who serves California's 47th district.
"In just a short time, the Aquarium of the Pacific has redefined the
modern aquarium. It has become a leading force in educating the next
generation about the importance of the ocean and scientific research,
fostering a community of students, families, friends, and scientific
experts who learn together. I look forward to seeing how the new Pacific
Visions wing will broaden that community and reinforce our collective
responsibility to build a more sustainable future."
