The Paint a Fish interactive exhibit in the art gallery allows guests to paint one of three types of fish—a Parrot Fish, a school of Fairy Basslets, or a Blacktip Reef Shark. Guests can put their creative skills on display by coloring the fish with fun, bold patterns using a digital color palette. When the drawing is finished the fish is sent off to swim among other fish in a virtual coral reef projected on the gallery wall. Have fun taking photos alongside your new masterpiece!
