Get ready to dive into a hands-on creative experience inspired by the Sea Monsters: Prehistoric Ocean Predators exhibition at Mandurah Museum! In this workshop, children aged 5–12 will sand, assemble, and decorate their very own wooden shark using vibrant paint pens. Each participant will take their shark home as a one-of-a-kind ocean creature they've brought to life.
This engaging workshop sparks creativity, builds fine motor skills, and inspires curiosity about the ocean and its ancient predators. Perfect for inquisitive young minds who love making, painting, and discovering how prehistoric sea creatures once ruled the deep.
A sensory-friendly session is also available, offering a calm and supportive space for participants who prefer a quieter experience.
