At Suomenlinna Museum's playful fish-themed workshop, children and adults can draw and colour fish found in the surrounding waters, such as perch, pike and roach. The finished pictures become a shared fish artwork in the museum lobby. The workshop is Baltic Sea Day's clearest child-facing stop; the wider programme spreads around Suomenlinna and also includes beach clean-ups, exhibitions, algae sampling, music and a dip in the sea.
