Vice President, Development

West Palm Beach, Florida, United States Cox Science Center and Aquarium Full time
Vice President of Development | Cox Science Center and Aquarium
| West Palm Beach, FL

The Cox Science Center and Aquarium

Serving Palm Beach County since 1961, the mission of the Cox
Science Center and Aquarium (CSCA) is to "Open Every Mind to
Science." The Cox Science Center and Aquarium delivers on this
promise every day by providing schools, visitors, and campers an
entirely new set of science programming and tech ventures based on
computer coding, robotics, and other leading-edge educational
programs. These programs have allowed the Cox Science Center and
Aquarium to educate more young minds than ever before, now serving
over 500,000 students, teachers, and visitors annually.

Elevating Science for the Next Generation Capital
Campaign

In November 2021, the Cox Science Center and Aquarium announced
exciting expansion plans along with a name change, thanks to a
record donation from philanthropists Howard and Wendy Cox. Their
$20 million lead gift served as the keystone for the $115m
(increased from an original goal of $85m) capital expansion
campaign to take the Cox Science Center and Aquarium into the
future with expanded exhibit and programming spaces, including one
of Florida's largest aquariums. Major gifts from Citadel founder
and CEO Ken Griffin, Leonard Lauder, Charles and Helen Schwab, and
the David H. Koch Foundation were announced in early 2023. To date,
the campaign funds raised have exceeded $80 million and
construction is set to begin in 2024.

Upon completion, the Cox Science Center and Aquarium will triple in
size and more than double its attendance to over one million
visitors per year. The ground level will house the new grand lobby,
the 130,000-gallon Kenneth C. Griffin Aquarium, and STEAM Studio
Exhibition. The second level will feature an expanded Traveling
Exhibit Gallery, Digital Exhibit Gallery, and Technology & Me
exhibits.

Renovations to the original building will create a hub of education
spaces – The Schwab Family Next Generation STEM Learning Center

which will feature:

  • Seven STEM classrooms including biology wet labs and immersive
tech spaces

  • The Planetarium and Observatory
  • Theater
  • Digital Arts Studio
School programs will grow from 150,000 students to 350,000, with
50% of those being Title 1 students. The educational partnership
with Palm Beach County School District (the 10th largest district
in the nation) will double the schools served to over 200.

Kate Arrizza, President and CEO

Born and raised in Jupiter, FL, Kate volunteered at the Cox Science
Center and Aquarium in the late '90's and is a proud product of the
Palm Beach County public school system. After receiving her
Bachelor of Science degree from the United States Naval Academy,
she served as an Officer in the U.S. Navy for seven years.

Kate's tenure at Cox Science Center and Aquarium during the past 13
years has been transformational and earned her such recognition and
awards as South Florida Business Journal's "40 Under 40" award, Sun
Sentinel's Top Workplace Professional Award, Women of Worth Award
winner, ESPN's veteran of the month, and PBC Distinguished Alumni
Award. Kate also received West Palm Beach's Hometown Hero Award,
recognizing the selfless efforts of community leaders and
organizations for their boundless energy and devotion to the
residents of West Palm Beach, Palm Beach County, and the
nation.
