Giant Plastic Tap art installation

10 May, 2022 - 8 June, 2022

An iconic, three-story-tall Giant Plastic Tap art installation by celebrated Canadian artist and activist Benjamin Von Wong, spewing single-use plastic waste all over the entrance of Ripley’s Aquarium of Canada.

This striking symbol of the global plastic pollution crisis will be on display until World Oceans Day on June 8, 2022.

Cost: Free viewing of installation at entrance; Aquarium admission to go inside
