The Aquarium of Niagara is preparing for our fall fundraiser, “Oceanda: Where taste meets sustainability” on November 8th, 2023. The event will take place at Artisan Kitchens & Baths, on 200 Amherst Street in Buffalo. Utilizing the Culinary Loft demonstration cooking stations, eight local chefs will prepare sustainable seafood samplings. “Oceanda” will feature delicious food, an open bar, music, a virtual auction and more.

We are seeking items to create experience packages for our virtual auction. This includes restaurant gift certificates, spa/salon services, sports and theatre tickets, tours, getaways, and memorabilia. Donors will be recognized as auction contributors on the virtual auction site and during the event.

The Aquarium depends on the generosity from supporters like you to help drive our mission to inspire people to make a difference for aquatic life. It is through events like “Oceanda” that the Aquarium can educate the public on how to make sustainable seafood choices to conserve species for ocean health, and our future. Proceeds raised will support our efforts to provide care for the animals that call the Aquarium home.
