‘Wild Imagining’

Durham CC have initiated a project designed to encourage links between art and nature.

Following a meeting held at Waddington St. URC on July 14th led by Jane Shaw from Creativity Works, with approximately 30 FOFV members attending, we agreed to scope some of the ideas discussed.

One promising approach might be to commission an artist to design some new signage for the Vale. We will keep you updated as the project progresses.

Yours sincerely

Christine Hein-Hartmann
