The exciting events programme for the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition continues on Sunday, 14 July with Tom ‘the Blowfish’ Hird’s heavy metal marine biology show at Beverley Library.
This family-friendly show, based on Tom Hird’s book ‘Blowfish’s Oceanopedia’, takes the audience on a loud journey through the world of the oceans.
It promises to feature incredible and unusual facts about the creatures that lurk in the deep. The show features some of the most amazing creatures and biological processes found in our oceans, delivered in the Blowfish’s inimitable style, as the rates which are the most “rock n roll” sea creature!

The Blowfish has presented live shows to thousands of children and adults alike across the UK, appearing at The Big Bang Fair, The Skills Show, Oxford Science Festival, Otley Science Festival and Swansea Science Festival. He is also an Ocean Ambassador for the Marine Conservation Society,
