Greetings, my Coral Conservation and Music Friends!

In association with the Reef Discovery Center, we are exploring the possibility of a World Premier of the Reef Discovery Center on June 10, 2023. We would like to close off NE 33rd Street (and maybe NE 32nd Street and 34th Street, too!) from North Ocean Boulevard to 33rd or 32nd Avenue, to throw a day-long festival and art show called Coral Reef Fest, with the Reef Discovery Center as the beneficiary of the public’s attendance and support at the Fest.
