Later this month, the Isle of Man will welcome a pop-up exhibition showcasing the work of the UK based Unpath’d Waters Project.
The three year research project aims to connect the UK’s maritime collections and includes the Isle of Man.
The UK and the Isle of Man has a rich maritime heritage, stretching back over 23,000 years.
It’s impossible to tell the story of our islands without talking about our relationship with the sea.
Unpath’d Waters
Unpath’d Waters aims to increase interaction with maritime heritage by making it easier to research and easier for the public to discover and share stories in new ways.
As part of the project, the Maritime Archaeology Trust’s Exhibition Discovery Bus will visit the House of Manannan from August 9 -11 in support of the All at Sea exhibition.
On the maritime Discovery Bus visitors can use Virtual Reality headsets, to dive into a fully immersive virtual marine environment around the coast of the British Isles.
Information gathered about the Isle of Man will also be added to the Isle of Man Historic Environment Record.
