Mission

Ride a fish at the original site of the New York Aquarium.

The carousel - minus the usual middle pole

The SeaGlass Carousel

MISSION BRIEF

Theatrical designer George Tsypin's Seaglass Carousel is a menagerie of glowing fiberglass fish, spinning around one another within a clear nautilus shell.

Choose a sea creature, climb aboard and pretend you are underwater as you swirl to an aquatic composition and ocean-inspired light display.
