Join us on a cinematic and musical odyssey that explores the remarkable relationship between humans and rivers.

Throughout history, rivers have shaped our landscapes and our journeys; flowed through our cultures and dreams. RIVER takes its audience on a journey through space and time; spanning six continents, and drawing on extraordinary contemporary cinematography, including satellite filming, the film shows rivers on scales and from perspectives never seen before.

Written by Robert Macfarlane with music by Richard Tognetti and the Australian Chamber Orchestra (ACO) and featuring music by Jonny Greenwood and Radiohead and narration by Willem Dafoe.

Join artists Helen Garbett and Bill Laybourne in this screening of River to be followed by a discussion and introduction to related creative events, walks and workshops.

HOW YOU CAN JOIN IN

This film screening will take place at CoLab Dudley, 201a High Street, Dudley.

Places are limited, sign up on Eventbrite

Getting Into Hot Water is an art-based inquiry into water and climate change locally.

Getting into Hot Water explores our relationship with water and the natural world around us, bring our attention to water, questioning the habitual ways by which we know water, stimulating dialogue regarding human water relations and in the process engendering a process of curiosity, wonder and care. As part of the Dudley People's School for Climate Justice, through Getting into Hot Water, Workshop 24 invite you to join them in a series of conversations, Water Walks, Field Trips, Water Courses and ponderings…
