A Prime Opportunity for Networking and Information Sharing

Mass Audubon’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary Director Melissa Lowe says she always looks forward to this annual event. “The natural history conference has always been one of my favorite events in large part because of the special opportunity to meet and talk to local scientists one-on-one. It provides a place to learn about the people and local organizations doing important environmental work, to network—and even to inspire future projects by sharing questions and ideas.”



Conference Details

The cost of the conference is $25 per person and $15 for students (with student ID).

Coffee and refreshments will be provided, but attendees are encouraged to bring lunch and a coffee mug to reduce waste.
