WWU, City of Poulsbo, Foundation Reach Agreement on Marine Science Center Building

Western Washington University, the city of Poulsbo and the Poulsbo Marine Science Foundation have approved initial agreements that will allow Western to lease and then to assume ownership of the Poulsbo Marine Science Center building.

The agreements were announced at an event last Tuesday attended by university, city and Poulsbo Marine Science Foundation officials. A new name for the center also was unveiled: the SEA Discovery Center. SEA indicates the marine orientation of the center and is an acronym for the center’s three component services: science, education and aquarium.
