Havre de Grace Maritime Museum and Environmental Center is located in Havre de Grace, Maryland. It is situated at the mouth of the Susquehanna River and the head of Chesapeake Bay, the largest estuary in the United States which outlets into the AtlanticOcean. We are pleased to host award winning artist Selva Ozelli on 2024 Earth Day with a show titled “Healing Waters 2.” Ms. Ozelli’s work is cataloged by the United Nations, Tokyo Metropolitan Museum and the Berlin University of Art as part of the project titled Climate Summit Art and Political Event, 1972 – 2022. She has exhibited at United Nations Climate Change Conferences, Auckland Climate Festival, London Climate Action Week and New York Climate Week, the United Nations Biological Diversity, and the United Nations Oceans Decade. “With my art show ‘Healing Waters’ at the Havre de Grace Maritime Museum and Environmental Center, I hope to draw attention to the nearly extinct Darter Fish and to the fact that action to restore wetlands and oceans is gathering momentum not only in Chesapeake Bay, but also around the world too” explained Selva Ozelli. Ms. Ozelli is an ambassador to Oceanic Global and a member of Climate Heritage Network.
