Round Our Place Ravenscraig

Our Work | March 26, 2024

Round Our Place Ravenscraig is a project created with and by the people of North Lanarkshire who live on the periphery of the land where the Ravenscraig Steelworks previously existed.

This post-industrial land is at a pivotal moment for its surrounding community with plans for regeneration. Tricky Hat Productions is looking for people from North Lanarkshire to participate in this creative project to reflect on the past, while looking at the present and dreaming of the future.

This project is led by Tricky Hat Associate Artist, Kim Beveridge, who was born, raised, lives and works in North Lanarkshire.  Kim will be working with the community and local artists to create a sound walk and live performance on the former site of Ravenscraig Steelworks.

 

WALKING WORKSHOPS

Join local conservationist Hamshya Rajkumar and Tricky Hat staff for a reflective walk around Ravenscraig. Explore the area’s unique plant and wildlife, and share what this post-industrial land means ti you as it faces a pivotal moment of regeneration.  Everyone is welcome!

SUNDAY 8th and SUNDAY 15th September 2024

1pm – 2.30pm

Meeting Point: Front entrance of Ravenscraig Sports Facility

There will be recording during the workshop, but don’t worry – recording 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 our discussions and share stories.  If the weather is bad, we’ll move the workshop indoors.

 

If you are interested in participating in the project in anyway or would like to know more information, please contact Kim Beveridge (photographed below): 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.
