This September, the Aquarium launches a project that will renew its main building to the core.
It will remain open for the entire duration of the project.
Five Years of Progress
This $15 million project will be the culmination of a $42 million Mission Blue campaign initiated in 2007 to create a new Aquarium experience. Learn more.
Scope and Features
The 10-month project will rebuild the Aquarium's signature central exhibit—the Giant Ocean Tank. But that's just part of the scope. Learn more.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Aquarium will remain open for the entire duration of the project, allowing visitors to see animals from new angles. 
Get Involved
Anyone who has ever visited the New England Aquarium knows Myrtle, our 560-pound green sea turtle. Now, it’s time to make Myrtle’s house better than ever. Your tax-deductible donation will help us completely revitalize the Giant Ocean Tank—not only for Myrtle but for the hundreds of other marine animals who share her home and the millions of people who will visit in the coming years. Creating the new Aquarium experience is a big project, but with your help we can make it happen.
We’ll keep sharing details and progress updates throughout the project. Stay tuned by signing up for our monthly e-newsletter, Seabits, and be sure to connect with the Aquarium on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Tumblr.
