Great to share the artistic inspiration for my current research Birds, Bees, Bikes and Trees with Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art and North East Young Dads & Lads (NEYDL) with the Newcastle Creates group, and that this co-created artwork came out of my visit to Great North Museum: Hancock and the Art of Atomhawk exhibition

Good luck to everyone taking part in today's #GreatNorth10k . Whilst you're here, come take your photo next to Newcastle Creates Cultural Boards!

Beautiful morning for a walk into a a slightly misty Jesmond Dene to meet with other board members of Newcastle Creates for a day of discussions and planning!

Well, that was a good day. Began by marking the successes, and beginning to discuss the way forward, for the amazing 8 #LCEPS across the North East with Culture Bridge NE and finished by voting in the new Directors who will lead Newcastle Creates

It’s Newcastle Creates Board away day & my first Board away day!

I’m really looking forward to catching up with the Board Directors & our newly appointed PM.

If you live, work or study in Newcastle, Newcastle Creates is for you!

Fascinating discussion at Dance City tonight with Andy Haddon of Big River Bakery talking passionately about connecting people with the sustainable growing, making, and selling of food. The discussions afterwards made me dig out my old copy of Ladybird's 'The Little Red Hen'! 1/2

Chris Jones from the Tyndall Centre was on the panel for our recent culture and climate event. If you enjoyed that, I'm sure you'll find this episode interesting.

Really enjoyed being part of this panel, discussing creativity and imagination as responses to environmental crisis. Thanks Alistair Ford and Newcastle Creates for inviting me! :)

Such a fascinating discussion happening right now at Newcastle Creates on how culture & cultural organisations can raise awareness of the climate emergency

This happened today. 3 years work to get to this point, the vast majority of it by much clever and more diligent people than me. But the Newcastle Culture Compact now has an elected board. Exciting!

Looking forward to this event this evening. A great way to celebrate #EarthDay2024
