The Great Outdoors: Photography, Birds & Bats (Bickershaw Country Park, Pennington Flash & Wigan Flashes) Camping, Astronomy, Aircraft and Amateur Radio.
A groundbreaking public art and climate initiative designed to inspire action and renew our bond with the natural world. From April to August 2025, life-size puppet animals will sweep through city centers on a 20,000km journey from the Congo Basin to the Arctic Circle, fleeing climate disaster.
Events and performances by world-class artists will respond as the herds move, bringing together the worlds of arts and science in an urgent call for climate action.
