A Water Walk to the Source of the Stour

  • Uffmoor Wood Car Park Uffmoor Lane Halesowen, B62 0NF United Kingdom (map)

Join artists Helen Garbett and Bill Laybourne on a walk from Uffmore Wood Carpark to the source of the Stour near St. Kenelm's in Clent.

Giving its name to Stourbridge, the River Stour is nevertheless often mysteriously absent from view, having been culverted, built over and hidden away. As part of Getting Into Hot Water, by which they question the habitual ways we know water, local artists Helen and Bill invite you to join them on a water walk to find the source of the Stour near to St. Kenelm's Church in the Clent Hills.

HOW YOU CAN JOIN IN

The walk starts start at Uffmoor Wood Carpark at 10.30 am.

Places are limited, sign up on Eventbrite

ABOUT GETTING INTO HOT WATER

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

Water, in our part of the world is largely taken for granted and under appreciated, that is until there is not enough of it, too much of it or the management of it goes wrong. 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…
