*By Daily Press staff*

Earth Day will be celebrated at Heal the Bay’s Santa Monica Pier Aquarium from 12:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 22, and Sunday, April 23\. Visitors can participate in beach cleanups, workshops, games, and arts and crafts. Classroom lectures and presentations by aquarium staff and Heal the Bay’s scientists will delve deeper into environmental issues affecting the marine environment, including storm drain runoff, ocean pollution and the bacterial counts used to formulate the Beach Report Card.

Conservation-themed movies also will be screened. The aquarium is located below the historic carousel at the Santa Monica Pier. Admission is free for children 12 and under; admission for ages 13 and above is $2.
