Inspired by the Cathedral's Whales installation and Ocean Photographer of the Year, this summer's family activities celebrate the wonders of life beneath the waves.

Throughout the six-week school holiday, children, families and visitors of all ages are invited to help create a vibrant underwater world. Each week, try a different craft and add a new sea creature to our growing Fin-tastic Families display. From shivers of sharks to galaxies of starfish and much more, every creation will become part of a community artwork that grows across the summer.
