The Wild Escape – 11th January – 22nd April

Come and celebrate the finale of The Wild Escape & Earth Day

THIS SATURDAY 22nd April

between 10am and 12pm.

Create a biodegradable seed starter to plant at home and follow the activity trail to explore the immersive installation.

If you have a piece of work created during a workshop, this will be the perfect time to show your friends and family as well as the chance to take home your creation if you’d like it back!

Explore the Riverside Gallery as it has been transformed into wild, creative habitats inspired by woodlands, skies, urban nights and rivers.

The Wild Escape was a major new project uniting hundreds of museums and art organisations in a celebration of UK wildlife and creativity.

Through the power of art and imagination, The Wild Escape was an opportunity to explore the big subjects of biodiversity and the environment through a focus on wildlife and the nature around us, cumulating with a launch of the collective works on Earth Day 2023.

Using as many found and recycled materials as possible, we have been so grateful for our incredible community who have helped us turn our blank walls into this incredible large-scale creative installation.
