Our shoreline sparkles with magical shells, former residence for aquatic organisms that have since moved on. But how do these carapaces come into existence? Find out in the museum’s latest event.
On February 16, at 11 a.m., Roy Revis will present “How Shells are Formed,” at the Museum of Coastal Carolina.
The event will reveal the composition, shapes and colors of the creatures who build these sea shells and leave them behind for coastal explorers.
