🌿 Join Us for Walking Workshops at Ravenscraig!
Last Sunday, we had a fantastic time during our first walking workshop, and we can’t wait to do it again this Sunday, Sep 15th, from 1pm - 2:30pm.
Be part of Round Our Place Ravenscraig—a project created with and by the people of North Lanarkshire who live on the periphery of the former Ravenscraig Steelworks.
Join local Hamshya Rajkumar, and Tricky Hat staff for a reflective walk around Ravenscraig, exploring the area’s unique plant and wildlife, and sharing what this post-industrial land means to you as it faces a pivotal moment of regeneration.
Led by Tricky Hat Associate Digital Artist Kim Beveridge, born and raised in North Lanarkshire, this project aims to reflect on the past, explore the present, and imagine the future.
Kim will be recording the workshop, but don’t worry—release forms will be provided, and you can opt-out if preferred.
After our walk, we’ll gather for tea and coffee at the Ravenscraig Sports Facility to continue the conversation and share stories.
If the weather takes a turn, we’ll move the workshop indoors.
Everyone is welcome!
📅 Date: SUNDAY, September 15th
🕐 Time: 1pm - 2:30pm
📍 Meeting Point: Front entrance of Ravenscraig Sports Facility
Interested in participating or want to learn more?
Contact Kim Beveridge at kim@trickyhat.com.
Round Our Place Ravenscraig is funded by Creative Scotland and developed in partnership with North Lanarkshire Council and Measuring Humanity at The University of Edinburgh.
We hope to see you there! 🌿
