Description

Project Seahorse presents "Seahorses" - an exhibit by Xavier Cortada.

Join us for the official launch of “Seahorses: Magical Creatures in Our Backyard”.

This initiative by Project Seahorse will build awareness about seahorses and other syngnathids in Biscayne National Park and inspire residents of Miami-Dade County to take action to protect the park and their oceans. Charismatic symbols of the seagrasses, mangroves, reefs and estuaries they call home, seahorses are flagship species for a wide range of marine conservation issues in Biscayne National Park.

This campaign is made possible through the generous support of the Herbert W. Hoover Foundation. The Herbert W. Hoover Foundation takes a leadership role in funding unique opportunities that provide solutions to issues related to the community, education, and the environment.


Organized by

Project Seahorse is a marine conservation group dedicated to securing a world where marine ecosystems are healthy and well-managed.

We work to protect seahorses, and through seahorses, we support marine conservation more broadly. We begin with cutting-edge research and turn our findings into highly effective conservation action, in collaboration with governments, local communities, and other stakeholders.
