Unveiling the Wonders of the Ocean: Atomic Carrots' Marine Debris Exhi

We are thrilled to announce the completion of our latest project – a permanent exhibit on marine debris, housed within the stunning national seashore, Padre Island Malaquite Visitor Center. This exhibit combines education, interaction, and artistic vision to shed light on the critical issue of marine pollution and its impact on our oceans.

The Concept:

The centerpiece of our exhibit is a large-sized Plinko Game, designed to engage visitors of all ages. But this isn't your ordinary Plinko Game – it's a visually captivating experience, featuring hand-illustrated backgrounds and chips representing the most commonly found marine debris items washed up on the park’s shores.

Interactive Learning:

Visitors will have the opportunity to drop these chips into the Plinko Game and watch as they cascade down, ultimately landing in an origin bin. As the chips fall, they'll witness the effects of marine debris firsthand, gaining a deeper understanding of its impact on marine life and ecosystems.

Artistry Meets Education:

One of the unique aspects of our exhibit is its illustrative look, which strikes a balance between whimsical and biologically accurate. Every detail, from the background of the Plinko Game to the design of the chips, has been meticulously crafted to provide an immersive and educational experience.

Traveling Exhibit:

But our commitment to marine conservation doesn't stop there. In addition to the permanent exhibit at Padre Island, we also created a portable version for traveling purposes. This tabletop version two pop-up banners, allowing us to bring the message of ocean conservation to communities far and wide.

Conclusion:

With our work at Padre Island National Seashore, we aim to inspire action and raise awareness about the importance of protecting our oceans. Together, let's work towards a future where marine debris is a thing of the past, and our oceans thrive once more.

Join us on this journey as we unveil the wonders of the ocean and empower visitors to make a positive impact on the world around them.
