People will be able to learn about the ocean and Bermudian heritage at the Bermuda Adventure at the Aquarium on Monday.

It is being organised by groups including Bermuda Aquarium Museum and Zoo, Crossroads Football, Flatts Recreation, Imagine Bermuda, Somersfield Academy and St Patrick’s Church.

It will take place from 6pm to 8pm.

Another Bermuda Adventure will take place at Auto Solutions on August 9, from 5pm to 6.30pm, when people can explore the changing world of vehicles in the 21st century.
