Details

The Surfrider Foundation NH chapter has partnered with local artist and ocean activist, Rebecca McGee Tuck, to present this informative, creative and eye-opening exhibit. 

The Surfrider Foundation nationwide is dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of the world’s ocean, waves, and beaches, for all people, through a powerful activist network. They fight for Plastic Reduction in marine environments, Ocean Protection, Beach Access for all, Coast and Climate issues, and Clean Water!  The network of chapter volunteers serves as the first response to local threats in coastal communities across the US. They are the boots on the ground who collaborate on both the local and national level with regional staff and issue experts to carry out our mission through campaign, program and educational initiatives in their local communities.
