See three majestic sperm whale sculptures suspended in our Nave. A thought provoking and inspiring artwork by artist Tessa Campbell Fraser In partnership with MESSUMS ORG
Visitors are encouraged to marvel at these majestic animals and consider how the current climate emergency may impact on these exceptional mammals.
Accompanying Whales will be a bumper programme of events and activities inspired by the sea. There’s music from the BBC Big Band, an evening of Sea Shanties and, for families, the chance to hear about Jonah and the Whales. Tickets for these events and many more are available on our website.
Whales opens at Rochester Cathedral on the 10th February until the 7th March. Admission is free during the day but charges apply for schools, groups and special events.
