Artists and historians will be exploring the Tame and the area around, and the individual journeys through Witton and Perry Barr of residents past and present. There will be lots going on, including events, workshops, printed work and exhibitions for the whole community to get involved in.

Upstream:Downstream (Part Two- Witton Bridge)

























Over April there is a piece of work (that will be added to over the month) on both Holford and Witton Bridges. The work on the UPSTREAM side of  Witton Bridge (above) explores the history of the River Tame; each jam jar contains a photograph of the river through its history, and memories, poetry and thoughts about the river heritage. On the DOWNSTREAM side (below) are thoughts collected from various parts of the Tamed project, including the Mobile Drawing Studio, Deykin Avenue School and art workshops, exploring the here & now and the future of the River Tame.
