We’re excited to announce that The Art of Saving Sea Turtles is returning for its fifth year on Sunday, October 18th at the historic 1859 Ashton Villa in Galveston, Texas!
This beloved annual benefit brings together conservation, community, and creativity to celebrate the incredible work being done to protect Texas’ sea turtles and coastal ecosystems. Guests will enjoy an afternoon featuring local art, the inspiring Turtles About Town art project, delicious hors d’oeuvres, beer, wine, mimosas, raffle prizes and more – all while supporting Turtle Island Restoration Network’s local sea turtle and ocean conservation programs.
Whether you’ve attended in the past or are joining us for the first time, this year’s event promises to be another memorable celebration of the people and partnerships making a difference for marine wildlife.
