Celebrate World Oceans Day at Galway Atlantaquaria

Galway Atlantaquaria invites you to visit our Aquarium on the 8th of June to celebrate World Oceans Day with a series of fun activities designed to help people learn more about our ocean.

Draw inspiration from the Aquarium, its signage, staff and marine animals to create a series of artistic images and stories to encourage positive action to protect our ocean from plastic pollution.

The Aquarium is planning a series of art inspired events in the Aquarium to enable young & older people to understand how important the ocean is to their health and well being.

Join the amazing storyteller Rab Fulton for a wonderful, mesmerising story time, which includes a workshop on story creation and development.

Other events in & outside the Aquarium include; Clean Coasts Beach Clean, Yoga with Sinéad McKiernan from LoveYoga, Molly & Marine friends Art, Susie Quinn Prints-piration Art, Art Workshop, and More.

A donation from World Oceans Day will be made to the RNLI Lifeboats, #SaveLivesatSea For more information about the day and events please email; [email protected]
