About

Celebrate Earth Day and enjoy a range of activities inspired by our Wild Ireland exhibition in the Ulster Museum this spring.

From Saturday 12th April to Sunday 27th April, you can create your own Ichthyosaur to add to a collaborative artwork or explore the Wild Ireland themed felt-wall in Discover Art.
Invent your own Lost Monster and learn to decode the language of spring flowers in Discover History.

On Tuesday, 22nd April, the Ulster Museum is marking Earth Day. Visit Discover Nature throughout the day to learn about fossil fuels and renewable energy sources. Get hands-on with objects that demonstrate the impact of energy on our local wildlife and environment! The theme for Earth Day this year is 'Our Power, Our Planet'. Get involved by pledging actions and getting creative through craft.
