Have you ever wondered what—and how—all those tide pool animals eat without visible mouths or teeth? Find out when you join us for a special peek at the touch tank every Wednesday! Program runs July 11-August 22.
Joppa Flats is proud to offer free admission to active-duty U.S. military personnel and their families from Memorial Day to Labor Day through the Blue Star Museums program.
