About this Event
In Victorian times, people placed beautiful glass domes on graves, filled with precious objects, symbols and treasures to honour those they had lost. Now that tradition is coming back to life and we want you to be part of it.
Newcastle-based Moving Parts Arts has worked with local artists in Newcastle, London and Exeter to create three stunning new artworks inspired by this forgotten custom. These aren't just artworks to look at, they belong to you.
Join one of our free community workshops to contribute your own icons, symbols and treasured objects to each piece, making every Immortelle a living portrait of its community.
This activity is suitable for all ages, but children must be accompanied by an adult.
Spaces are limited and must be pre-booked.
