Synopsis

A collection of original postcards and messages from 50 illustrators across the world, working to celebrate and protect the precious life in our oceans.

The postcards are displayed under three headings: Celebrating the Ocean; The Danger to the Ocean; Take Action for the Ocean.

The world-class illustrators include Axel Scheffler, Roger Mello, Barroux, Piet Grobler, Yuval Zommer, Petr Horáček, Jackie Morris, Nicola Davies and Jane Ray.
