We were honored to host an intimate gathering where art enthusiasts had the opportunity to bid on framed images, many of which exceeded their asking prices. - Waterfront Theatre Event:
On June 23, 2024, acclaimed photographers Paul Nicklen and Cristina Mittermeier led an inspiring discussion on conservation and storytelling.
Impact
Thanks to the overwhelming support of our community, the event was a resounding success. The gallery auction alone raised approximately $22,000, contributing to a total of $400,000 generated for ocean conservation initiatives. We are immensely grateful to all participants, artists, and supporters who made this event possible. Your passion for art and commitment to our oceans have created a lasting impact on vital conservation efforts.
100 for the Ocean assembles some of the world's most accomplished photographers and provides rare access to their works at an extremely affordable price - all to benefit ocean conservation!
100% of the net proceeds is used to support Ocean-based NGOs through storytelling on a global scale.
