The Ocean Adventure

Marine biologist & underwater videographer team, Wayne & Karen Brown, present their continuing ocean explorations via high-energy, fast-paced, multimedia programs that combine actual specimens, biological models, unique props, costumes, creative dramatics, storytelling techniques, high-tech SCUBA diving equipment, audience participation, breathtaking underwater photography/videography, and life-sized (or larger than life-sized) inflatable animals. In over 25 years of speaking to venues from coast to coast ranging from the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. to a tiny one-room library in the hills of Missouri they have spoken to over 4 million children and adults!
