What is a Charter Member?
Our Charter Members are the lifeblood of our organization and sustain the continued day-to-day operations of the nonprofit Aquarius Aquarium Institute. You become a Charter Member by joining at any annual member level prior to the Fresno Aquarium's official Opening Day. You must renew each year to continue receiving benefits. After Opening Day, there will still be annual memberships but no new Charter Memberships.
