Using the western flyer as a research and learning platform, its programs will blend together science, art, and literature to excite and galvanize future generations inspired by the remarkable story of john steinbeck and ed ricketts. The foundation will offer free at-sea experiential learning for school children, from alaska to mexico.
Our mission is to "stir curiosity" by connecting art and science in the spirit of john steinback, ed ricketts, and their journey on the western flyer.

Work in the research program will be carried out by foundation staff and participating scientists, including undergraduate and graduate students, and partner organizations. Community journal project this innovative, classroom-based program fosters environmental literacy through the integration of visual arts, ecology, and creative writing. We pair student groups (including middle and high school classes, afterschool groups, and summer programs) with professional artist mentors who lead lessons on scientific illustration, nature journaling, creative nonfiction writing, and local ecology. Through these lessons, students produce nature journals that are proudly displayed in our online art gallery. Onboard oceanography in collaboration with the naval postgraduate school and stanford's hopkins marine station, we have developed an onboard oceanography program for high school and post-secondary science classes. Seacoast programming will include time on the newly-restored western flyer and the opportunity to collect and analyze scientifically valuable oceanographic data on monterey bay. The curriculum is modular, allowing teachers to select from a variety of focal areas, and the lessons combine at-sea experiences, in-class activities, and mentorship from undergraduate and graduate student scientists.”

IN 2021-22, THE PROJECT SERVED 551 STUDENTS AND 18 EDUCATORS THROUGHOUT MONTEREY COUNTY. WE ALSO MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS DEVELOPING OUR ONBOARD OCEANOGRAPHY PROGRAM FOR HIGH SCHOOLERS AND COLLEGE STUDENTS, WITH INPUT FROM EIGHT LOCAL TEACHERS AND AN EDUCATION EVALUATOR, AND IN PARTNERSHIP WITH STANFORD AND THE NAVAL POSTGRADUATE SCHOOL. WE ORGANIZED A "STUDENT HISTORY SLAM" AS PART OF THE MONTEREY PUBLIC LIBRARY'S "LOCAL HISTORY SLAM" EVENT, WITH TWENTY-TWO STUDENTS DELIVERING PRESENTATIONS ON LOCAL HISTORY DURING LIVE-VIRTUAL EVENTS. WE ALSO PILOTED AN INTERTIDAL ZONE BIOBLITZ, A CITIZEN SCIENCE PROGRAM THAT INVITES COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO CATALOG AND IDENTIFY MARINE INVERTEBRATES USING THE PROGRAM INATURALIST. BY PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNITY-FOCUSED EVENTS AND FESTIVALS, WE RAISED AWARENESS ABOUT THE HISTORIC WESTERN FLYER AND THE LESSONS OF STEINBECK AND RICKETTS WHILE PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE PUBLIC TO INTERACT WITH THE ICONIC VESSEL. WE OFFERED HUNDREDS OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS REGULAR TOURS OF THE WESTERN FLYER AND REACHED TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VIEWERS THROUGH YOUTUBE VIDEOS THAT WE PRODUCED ABOUT THE RESTORATION PROCESS. ON JUNE 29, WHEN THE WESTERN FLYER RETURNED TO THE WATER FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SEVEN YEARS, MORE THAN 100 COMMUNITY MEMBERS IN PORT TOWNSEND SHOWED UP TO CELEBRATE AND SEE THE WESTERN FLYER OFF. |
