Vision Statement Odyssey's Vision To be the Portal to the Pacific Maritime Experience A world class must see passageway to the waterfront; a high-tech, high-touch museum of discovery that educates and enriches understanding of maritime experiences and economic impacts. Today, Odyssey is creating a future as a contemporary maritime museum comprised of high-tech and high-touch exhibits and activities suitable for all ages, but especially for pre-school through eighth grade students, parents, grandparents and teachers – a family and school destination. Yet, the appeal of Odyssey leaves no one behind. Tourists and members of the maritime, fisheries and trade organizations will find a captivating place to meet and visit as well. It is Odyssey’s intent to attract people of all ages, not once, but time and time again.   Through continually changing exhibits that provide new experiences and a sense of wow, Odyssey establishes a social venue for people of all ages, gender, race and ethnic background to interact and construct meaning of human connections to the seas and waterways in an evolving, enjoyable and educational way. Among the key concepts introduced are: Intermodalism, resource management, international trade, environmental protection, safety at sea, and the importance of ensuring a skilled, competent, and dedicated workforce.
