The Johnson Ohana Foundation presents in conjunction with the NOAA and UN Environment 6th International Marine Debris Conference

Matters of the Ocean

a group art exhibition

MARCH 12-16, 2018

HILTON MISSION BAY, SAN DIEGO

Matters of the Ocean brings together professional and student artists in discussion of the world’s shared waters. The collection of works raises awareness about ocean pollution and creates a space in which to immerse conference participants in an emotional, visceral understanding of the depth of marine debris’ impact. Each of the artists’ work addresses matters of the ocean while providing space for each artist to take these matters into their own hands and inspire change in others.
