The Link Teesside Rangers
This project will run over the course of 2022.
The plan is to take a group of older children (11-16yrs) to local historic centres and natural sites around Teesside. Then follow these field visits up with a series of creative workshops, culminating in a art exhibition of sculpture, photography, drawing and installation.
We begin in Easter Holidays 2022 with an exciting trip to Saltholme RSPB bird sanctuary and the seal viewing point at the Tees estuary. This will be a full day trip and workshop, followed by 3 more after school workshops.
June half term – Dorman Museum and Albert Park – Looking at the history of Linthorpe pottery, followed by 3 workshops after school.
Summer Holidays – Middlesbrough Transporter Bridge and Museum plus the Tremenos art sculpture by Anish Kapoor (+3 workshops)
October half term – Skinningrove Heritage Mining Museum and beach walk. (+ 3 workshops)
