Welcome to the St. Louis Aquarium Foundation's Splash Bash!

Join us where the Mississippi meets the Gulf in New Orleans! You'll be "transported" to NOLA through entertainment, food and drinks that represent the unique culture of this great city on the water!

The St. Louis Aquarium Foundation offers educational programming for kids to learn about aquatic animals, think critically about conservation issues, and participate in fun STEM-based activities and projects. Through the H2O Friends program, the Foundation provides free access to the St. Louis Aquarium and STEM-based conservation and aquatic life education for youth from Title I schools as well as other underserved community partners. 100% of funds raised at this event will go to supporting the H2O Friends program!
