Wetlands are vital components of coastal ecosystems. They serve as filters for pollution, provide wildlife habitat, and are special places for human recreation and reflection. Through exploration and investigation of the Crissy Field marsh and dune system, students learn about the various roles that wetlands play in our urban environment and why wetlands are important to each of us. In the Crissy Field Center Arts Workshop, students express their new knowledge of wetlands through a creative art project.
