In May 2023, the research station hosted the University of Maine's field school program called Sea to Sky, led by science communication and art instructor Claire Giordano. The school stayed for nearly two weeks and collected data, learned about the local landscape and community, and explored creative ways to communicate their experience and research. Claire led the group in a wide variety of classes ranging from using watercolor to capture the colors and patterns of place to writing workshops focused on integrating personal experiences of field work into stories of science. Claire also created daily paintings of the landscapes studied by the team.
