Without the support of funders, partners and people like yourself, we wouldn’t be able to deliver our diverse programme of projects and events along the Thames and across the world.
This immersive experience brings together the voices and creativity of over 600 young people from 15 Tees Valley schools, working in collaboration with lead artists BloomInArt, poet Carmen Marcus and filmmaker Scott Akoz. As you move through the installation, you’re invited to pause, listen and witness how nature, words and imagination combine in a moving call for hope and change.
Commissioned by Thames Festival Trust and Stockton International Riverside Festival.
Supported by Tees Rivers Trust, Canal and Rivers Trust, Arts Council England, and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. Presented by Thames Festival Trust with BloomInArt, Carmen Marcus, and Scott Akoz.
