SUMMARY:September Maritime Distinguished Speaker Series Presents “The Blue Blind Spot: The Most Important Infrastructure Project That No One Is Funding”
DESCRIPTION:SBMM is pleased to present “The Blue Blind Spot: The Most Important Infrastructure Project That No One Is Funding” as part of its September Maritime Distinguished Speaker Series. The program will feature Chris Ragland\, founder and executive director of Sea League\, for a thought-provoking talk on ocean access\, stewardship\, and the importance of building meaningful connections between coastal communities and the marine environments that surround them on Thursday\, September 17\, 2026\, at 7:00 p.m. at the museum. SBMM members are invited to a pre-lecture reception from 6:15–6:45 p.m. \nTickets: Free for Navigators Circle members\, $10 for SBMM members\, $20 for the general public\, and $5 for students and educators with valid school ID or email. For reservations\, visit sbmm.org\, email reservations@sbmm.org\, or call (805) 456-8750. \nRegister Today \nIn his presentation\, Ragland will explore the idea that nature connection should be treated not simply as a charitable cause\, but as essential public infrastructure. Drawing on Sea League’s work creating immersive ocean experiences that cross economic lines and bridge neighborhoods\, he will examine how direct connection to the sea can cultivate future stewards\, scientists\, entrepreneurs\, and the workforce needed for a thriving blue economy. \nThe talk will focus on the Santa Barbara Channel as one of the most ecologically significant marine environments on the planet\, while also highlighting the reality that many people living along the surrounding coastline have never meaningfully experienced it. Ragland will discuss what is possible when ocean fluency is built at scale and how that vision could strengthen marine conservation\, workforce development\, community resilience\, and the long-term health of the coastlines on which society depends. \n“There is no institutional infrastructure that normalizes ocean immersion for coastal communities\,” said Ragland. “This fragmented familiarity produces fragmented stewardship. You can’t build a coalition broad enough to protect something that most of your community has never had the chance to experience.” \nChris Ragland is the founder and executive director of Sea League\, a Santa Barbara organization innovating how youth connect to the ocean. A waterman-turned-social entrepreneur\, he brings together a decade of experience as a surf coach\, lifeguard\, and kayak guide in Channel Islands National Park with leadership in environmental advocacy and public engagement. As Creative Director at FinalStraw\, he helped advance efforts that eliminated 300 million single-use straws. He has also collaborated with NOAA and California’s Ocean Protection Council on public engagement and served on the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary Advisory Council. \n“Chris Ragland brings an inspiring and necessary perspective to the conversation about the future of our coast\,” said SBMM Executive Director Dean Noble. “His work challenges us to think differently about who has access to the ocean\, why that matters\, and how those connections shape the next generation of marine stewards.” \nThrough the Maritime Distinguished Speaker Series\, SBMM continues to bring leading voices in ocean science\, maritime history\, conservation\, and coastal culture to the Santa Barbara community\, reinforcing the museum’s mission to illuminate our rich connections with the sea through education and storytelling.

SUMMARY:Join us for “How Our Skeletons Can Save Our Reefs” with Dr. Marley Dewey
DESCRIPTION:Bone to Reef: UC Santa Barbara Bioengineer Dr. Marley Dewey Shares Breakthrough Path for Coral Recovery at SBMM \nSBMM is proud to present the May installment of its Maritime Distinguished Speaker Series\, “How Our Skeletons Can Save Our Reefs\,” featuring Dr. Marley Dewey\, assistant professor of bioengineering at UC Santa Barbara. The lecture will take place on Thursday\, May 21\, 2026 at 7:00 p.m. at the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum. SBMM members are invited to a pre-lecture reception from 6:15–6:45 p.m. \nTickets are free for Navigators Circle members\, $10 for SBMM members\, $20 for the general public\, and $5 for students and educators with a valid school ID or email. Reserve online below\, email reservations@sbmm.org\, or call (805) 456-8750. \nRegister Today \nCoral reefs are built by living animals that create calcium-based skeletons—structures that support entire ecosystems\, protect coastlines\, and provide food and livelihoods for millions of people worldwide. However\, due to ocean warming and acidification\, coral reefs have declined by more than 50 percent since 1950. Traditional restoration efforts have struggled to keep pace with this rapid loss\, prompting scientists to explore innovative new solutions. \nDr. Dewey’s research offers a groundbreaking perspective by applying advances in biomaterials and tissue engineering—originally developed to repair human bone—to coral reef restoration. While coral skeletons have historically been used to repair human bones\, Dr. Dewey’s lab reverses this approach\, using lessons from bone repair technologies to design materials that can help accelerate coral growth and rebuild damaged reef structures. \nHer presentation will explore the scientific connections between human and coral skeletons\, the history of biomaterials research\, and the emerging field of coral tissue engineering. This work has significant implications for coastal ecosystems worldwide\, including those that influence ocean health and biodiversity along the California coast and within the Santa Barbara Channel. \n“SBMM is honored to host researchers like Dr. Dewey\, whose work demonstrates how innovation and science can help address some of the most pressing challenges facing our oceans\,” said Dean Noble\, executive director of the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum. “Her research reflects the kind of forward-thinking solutions that inspire hope and deepen our community’s connection to ocean stewardship.” \nSBMM Director of Education Lis Perry added\, “Our Maritime Distinguished Speaker Series brings leading voices in ocean science and conservation directly to our community. Dr. Dewey’s presentation highlights how interdisciplinary research can help protect marine ecosystems and inspire the next generation of ocean advocates.” \n \nDr. Marley Dewey is an assistant professor of bioengineering at UC Santa Barbara. She earned her BS in chemical engineering from the University of Maine and her PhD in materials science and engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign\, where she was a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow and recipient of the Annual Innovation Award for Outstanding PhD Thesis. She later served as an NIH Clinical and Translational Science Fellow at the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. Her research focuses on developing biomaterials and nanoparticles to improve human bone repair\, treat disease\, and restore coral reef ecosystems. \n“Corals and humans both rely on skeletons to provide structure and support\,” said Dr. Dewey. “By applying what we’ve learned from repairing human bone\, we can develop new tools that may help coral reefs recover and strengthen in the face of environmental change.” \nThis presentation reflects SBMM’s mission to explore and interpret the rich maritime and marine ecosystem history of the Santa Barbara Channel while connecting the public with contemporary research that shapes the future of our oceans.
