Progress and Seasons
A programme of public events – walks, workshops, meetings – oriented around two guiding themes: technological development and nature changing in a time of climate crisis. The ‘Progress’ line focuses on issues of development, engineering, historical and contemporary modernisation. The ‘Seasons’ line is dedicated to practising attentiveness to change in the non-human world. The programme includes events for adults and for families with children.
