Belonging in Wild artist residency
Drop-in sessions
Come along to one of our drop-in sessions and watch our Belonging in Wild artists at work.
Every Wednesday, Venture Arts studio artists, Andrew Johnstone and Emelia Hewitt use the Museum’s Top Floor as a space to explore Belonging in Wild themes and develop their creative work through interactions with the Museum’s objects and visitors.
You can come along to meet them while they work, enjoy their art and find out more about the creative process on selected dates until April 2025.
Belonging in Wild is a project that responds to our exhibition Wild, through which we have been working with neurodivergent young people and d/Deaf people and artists to investigate their experiences of the natural world. Through a series of creative workshops, new artwork has been created for display in the Wild exhibition.
The project aims to increase our understanding and awareness of how nature is experienced and accessed now by people with lived experience of disability and inspire action and imagination for a more inclusive wild future.
Public visitors can visit the Top Floor between 2-3pm to meet the artists on the dates below:
