Explore our extraordinary coral desert and fabulous underwater world

Following the success of their interactive installation Thingamabobas, Makers of Imaginary Worlds return to Lakeside Arts with a brand new interactive installation to inspire, inform and delight audiences. Explore our extraordinary and beautifully crafted upside down world with a strong underwater theme. The uniquely fashioned corals exist inside and around two domes, you will find story pods, giant corals and a relaxing coral garden. A fabulous interactive installation to share with friends and family.

Why is coral colourful?
Accompanying the installation is a small exhibition including examples of bleached corals. Learn about the amazing ways that our scientists and our population are responding to ecological challenges.
