Celebrating 100 expeditions onboard R/V ANGARI

About Our Celebration

ANGARI Foundation’s Annual Celebration brings together all of our partners, supporters, donors and other like-minded individuals to celebrate our successes, learn about our upcoming endeavors and make plans for the future. Join us in our mission for marine science research and education and celebrate with us.

This year we celebrated 100 expeditions onboard R/V ANGARI, supporting marine science research and education. The event was hosted at Belle’s Old Port Cove, a waterfront restaurant in North Palm Beach, Florida. Attendees enjoyed an evening of fun, food and live entertainment, and the vessel was on site and open for tours. Concurrent with this event was an online silent auction, which ran for one week during the celebration.
