Celebrate World Fish Migration Day with a pop-up activity at the Fairmount Water Works on the Schuylkill River Trail! This event is free and great for the entire family.
Learn about the fish that travel through our rivers in order to complete their life cycle! Using the "Gyotaku" method, a traditional form of Japanese art that allowed fisherman to record their catches, the FWW team will supply fabric paint for you to print a fish on your t-shirt.
This happens May 25th, 11 am -1 pm. Learn more here.
*Select t-shirt sizes will be available first come, first served. You may bring your own shirt too!
Comments will be approved before showing up.
