Make Plastic History

About

Take part in a range of family-fun activities with researchers from Staffordshire University. Recycle plastic waste into your own deep-sea creatures, go on an archaeological plastic dig, create a masterpiece with community artist Dan Lewis and more!
Enter an 18 metres long sperm whale and be greeted by a cheerful Navigator character who invites you to step inside the Whale. Experience a beautiful, funny and interactive show which will highlight the impact plastic has on our environment through a series of fun learning and theatrical experiences. Free, shows will be on a first come first served basis.
Funded by the British Academy SHAPE Involve and Engage programme.
