our very own Museum Mermaid
A Mermaid Museum: alternative mermaids, fierce mermaids, shark spirits and exhibitions: help us remember the origins of the Museum Mermaid by making our own Mermaid Museum
 
The Vicotrians created their own mermaids out of bits and bones, wood, fish, monkey skin.....they improvised wildly. Today, we are inviting you to help us create out own Mer-folk Museum. there might be fossilised mermaids, preserved mermen, a merquarium. Ther emight be terrible tales of bravery and foul deeds on the high seas and devious entrapments in low swamps and by the end of it all we might deice our merpeople need to swim free.....
