Working on the Water Week Interactive Exhibit

Our interactive exhibit at the aquarium this week is all about working on the water.  In the theatre we are featuring two short videos filmed by Coastal Livelihoods Trust, a local community organization.  At 11:30am is a 19 minute video titled ‘We’re Going Weir Fishing!’ and at 1:30pm is a 12 minute video titled ‘Lobster Fishing on Deer Island’.  We also have a children’s fishing game, information about lobsters and lobster traps, a scavenger hunt, and activity sheets for the kids.  Below are some pictures from the exhibit.

What can you catch for lunch? 

A lobster or perhaps a sea cucumber...yum!

Lobsters...king of the crustaceans!
