Join Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust for a hands-on workshop that brings together marine science and creativity. During the workshop, you'll learn how to identify marine species along our coastline through creative and interactive activities.

Get up close to real marine specimens under the microscope and chat with experts about the incredible species that call the Solent home. Then, unleash your creativity by sculpting your own ocean-inspired creature using environmentally friendly beeswax clay.

You can take your creation home as a keepsake or leave it with us to be recycled for future workshops. Suitable for young people and adults, this family-friendly session offers a unique opportunity to explore, create, and take a closer look at our amazing local marine life.
