Noyo Center Whale Festival Goes Virtual

How can a whale festival go virtual? The Noyo Center for Marine Science, in Fort Bragg, has some ideas. While its usual in-person festival is on hiatus, this year the center will be offering multiple COVID-19–safe activities, including a DIY scavenger hunt, March 6–21, that takes participants to local nature haunts; a behind-the-scenes virtual tour of the California Academy of Sciences on March 26 at 11 a.m., and a series of whale-oriented science talks offered via Zoom.
