"Ocean Bound!" will educate visitors on the value of water and where it comes from by demonstrating where it comes from and how to conserve it. The exhibit opened Jan. 27 and will run through May 14.
“Water conservation is crucial in meeting not just Sugar Land’s long-term water supply goals, but our entire region and beyond, and it will take a communitywide effort to achieve,” Brian Butscher, Sugar Land’s public works director, said in a press release.
Visitors can interact with displays including a watershed, a water conservation station explaining the present and future of indoor water conservation, and a water utility station that explores utility roles and standards.
“Many might not realize the role of watersheds, the sequence of the water cycle or the critical nature of water conservation, and we hope that the takeaway for our visitors is that they can do their part to make a positive, lasting environmental impact,” Kavita Self, director of the Houston Museum of Natural Science at Sugar Land, said in a press release.
The exhibit is a $5 fee, in addition to general admission. Tickets and more information can be found at www.hmns.org/oceanbound.
