A series of creative workshops with primary school children leading to a multimedia, multisensory exhibition on the topic of creating hope in times of environmental crisis, led by the University of Manchester.
Historical materials, fossils from the Manchester Museum, and environmental challenges will be explored through song, storytelling, auditory histories, drawing and poster design. The Year 4 children participants will work together with a historian, an artist, and a palaeontologist to create an exhibition for their whole school to engage with.
