The Horniman Walrus moves to Margate

Our Walrus is taking a Summer trip to the seaside, and won't be back until September.
He has left the museum for the first time since 1901, so he could feature in a new exhibition at Turner Contemporary in Margate.

While he's away, why not visit the Natural History Gallery and leave him a message on the Walrus Wall?
