30th June

Early Zoom call with Dr Frances McIntosh of English Heritage, discussing the next art projects for Birdoswald, Corbridge Roman Town and Carrawbrugh (with its Mithratic temple) and Coventina’s Well and putting provisional dates in dairies. We had a lot of discussion around appropriate youth groups and about reaching out to refugees who might like the link to their homeland through the Mithratic Temple.

Then off to Hadrian’s Primary School in South Shields to deliver pots ready for the dress rehearsal for their scene for Much Ado About Nothing at the Northern Stage, Newcastle. Everyone was delighted to see their pots back in school finished, ready for the exhibition and for them to be used in the play. The performance was the next day and the project and ACE were credited in the programme too!
