Ocean Week Halifax starts with cleanup Saturday

Ocean Week Halifax is launching a ten-day celebration to highlight the city's connection to the North Atlantic, beginning with a community cleanup event at the Africville Museum and Marina. Organized by Ocean Week Halifax, the festival features over 40 activities focused on ocean conservation and education, bringing together local communities, researchers, and artists. The event culminates in a free public celebration on the Halifax waterfront on June 6, featuring live music and family-friendly activities. Halifax serves as a key hub for the national Ocean Week Canada campaign, which traces its origins to the city's Maritime Museum and aligns with World Ocean Day.
