Marine Education & Research Society Auction 2024

It's time for the MERS Annual Auction!

Each year this auction provides crucial funds that help support MERS’ activities and core operating costs. Our research and education efforts are directed at the conservation of whales and the marine environment at large. Please see our annual report for information on what we accomplished in 2023 and the type of work this auction supports: www.mersociety.org/news-media/all/2023-mers-annual-report/

We are so grateful for the donors of these incredible items and all the bidders! We strive to fill our auction with sustainable, locally-made, and marine / conservation-themed items that align with our guiding principles.

Please note we have shortened the 2024 auction to 4 days. Make sure to get your bids in early!
