There are a lot of perks that come with membership at the New England Aquarium, like express admission all year and discounts at the Cafe and Gift Shop. Now you can add our new Member of the Week recognition to that list. How can members participate? Just show up and visit your Aquarium! We'll be randomly selecting members for this special honor throughout the fall. 

Meet Laura, Noah and Penelope from Brookline, our Members of the Week. We found them at the Pacific Reef Community in the Tropical Gallery as Penelope was “finding Nemo,” pointing out to her mom the brightly-colored clownfish she had spotted. Their family recently moved here from Birmingham, Alabama. “Noah loves all things aquatic, so we knew we had to get a membership,” Laura told us, adding, “We’re here every week!”  


Laura, Noah, and a very camera-shy Penelope: our Members of the Week 

For being our Members of the Week, they received a free 4”x6” photo from our friends at SharpShooter, a copy of the beautifully illustrated Aquarium souvenir guidebook, a turtle shell glass paperweight handcrafted by artist Robin Lehman and plush polar bears from To the Arctic 3D, one of the films you can currently see in the Simon’s IMAX Theatre.
