A chance to literally sleep with the fishes
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to feed a penguin, train an otter or cook for a shark? If so, an ongoing silent auction benefiting the Tennessee Aquarium may have something for you among its dozens of one-of-a-kind items and special experiences: a chance to meet and interact with a giant Pacific octopus, special sleepovers and birthday overnights, an after-hours guided Aquarium tour and beer tasting or a private chef-curated meal in the Ocean Journey building, for example. The online auction continues through May 21 at 32auctions.com/TNAquarium and supports the Aquarium’s Emergency Operations Fund established to help with ongoing operational costs, including animal care, during the Aquarium’s prolonged closure to visitors.
