There’s a new pop-up exhibit at the Shedd Aquarium.

Visitors at the new “Wonder of Water” exhibit may get to taste waters from around the world.

“The message of this exhibit is a simple one: water is what makes the dazzling biodiversity on Earth possible. Water is a precious and finite resource,” said Sarah Hezel, vice president of design and exhibits at Shedd Aquarium.

The exhibit is part of the Shedd’s $500 million Centennial Commitment initiative, announced in 2022, to update the aquarium and improve accessibility ahead of its 100th anniversary in 2030. By 2027, 14 galleries and exhibits are set to be renovated, with enhancements benefiting both visitors and aquarium life, officials said.

“Wonder of Water” took more than five years from conception to opening day.
