Living Sea Walls Cork & Tools of The Trade

Think art and science can't be friends? Think again!

Living Seawalls are tiles designed to support marine life, including seaweed, marine snails, worms and bugs, baby fish and more. Come see the wonderful work created by local schoolchildren as part of a creative collaboration between artists (Tools of the Trade) and UCC scientists (Living Seawalls in Cork). Get inspired to add to our giant paper seawall, or make your own tile to take home!

These hands‑on STEAM workshops are inspired by Tools of the Trade, a collaborative art project which brings together art, science, research, and creative enquiry. Through playful making and creative thinking, children are invited to explore big ideas about ecology, interconnected systems, and the often‑unseen life that supports our planet.
