This includes events and online content to encourage people to get involved and produce their own art\, inspired by the stunning landscape and geology of the North Pennines AONB and UNESCO Global Geopark. \nDuring the week the AONB Partnership are sharing top tips\, ideas and a series of videos for green sketching for wellbeing from Boggy Doodles\, and there are artists out in the landscape in a couple of places each day\, creating art as people pass by and stop to chat. Local people and visitors are encouraged to get involved by creating their own art and sending in pictures of it to form an online gallery\, alongside the work produced by the professionals. Free painting sets are available to collect from Bowlees Visitor Centre to make it easy to get started. \nPlease send pictures of your own creations to james@northpenninesaonb.org.uk or share them with us on social media to be included in the online gallery. All ages and abilities welcome. \nConnect to other Art Week pages using the following links: \n\nGreen sketching: doodle the North Pennines \n\n\nGreen sketching \n\n\nArtists in the landscape \n\n\nEvent links\n2 August – Walk\, look\, stop\, breathe\, create \n4 August – Wild Wednesday: nature’s art \n5 August – Chalk and Charcoal \n5 August – Landscape draw-along \n6 August – Art and climate science webinar \n7 August – Painting outdoors with oils and acrylics \n  \nNaomi Foster\, Geology Projects Officer\, said: \n“The North Pennines has such an amazing landscape\, formed over millions of years and telling a story of tropical seas\, desert plains\, molten rock and vast sheets of ice. Today that gives us hills and valleys\, rivers and waterfalls\, a unique combination of rare wildlife and hints of a strong mining and cultural heritage. Art is a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in the landscape\, and really take notice of the world around us\, from the tiniest flower to the shapes of the hills to the clouds in the sky. We hope you are inspired to create your own art and to experience special places in new ways.” \n  \n \n  URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/art-week/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Lionel-Playford-Epiacum-scaled.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210801 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210901 DTSTAMP:20260515T110946 CREATED:20210809T090555Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210809T162115Z UID:10000170-1627776000-1630454399@northpennines.org.uk SUMMARY:Exhibition: landscapes\, Teesdale and beyond DESCRIPTION:Ginny Whittle : landscapes\, Teesdale and beyond\n1 – 31 August 2021\nAn exhibition of artwork by Teesdale artist\, Ginny Whittle \nGinny’s work is informed by walking\, mountaineering\, climbing and camping amongst and on the mountains with her Border Terrier “Tatty” who loves a winter mountain day with firm snow to scamper along to a summit. \nShe loves to dwell in places visited by the great painters in our local landscapes\, like JWM Turner at “Meeting of The Waters” on The Tees; feel their presence; look at the changes time has made on the view. \nGinny is increasingly fascinated by the activities of people in the outdoors and our changing relationship to mountains over time. Because of this she likes to put figures into her paintings; these are basic in form and some are the size of very small ants\, but they in their turn inform the landscape. \nGinny has a degree in Fine Art and a teaching qualification. She was selected for The Laing Landscape Competition and exhibited in The Mall Galleries London. \nThe exhibition runs from 1 – 31 August 2021. There is no need to book. The exhibition is open when the Visitor Centre is\, daily from 10am to 4pm.

There will be a toilet available for use during lunch. \nThe High Helbeck Green Recovery Fund Project is a partnership project between estate owners Ben & Nicolete Blackett-Ord\, the North Pennines AONB Partnership\, the RSPB\, the Woodland Trust and Natural England. The Defra-backed project runs from January 2021 to March 2022 and a key part of the scheme is to deliver significant biodiversity benefits to the High Helbeck estate (near Brough\, Cumbria) including 80 hectares of peatland restoration\, an increase in trees and scrub\, covering 153 hectares\, and a series of small wetlands to enhance 85 hectares of habitat for breeding wading birds. \nThe route is around 8 miles long. The walk does follow existing public footpaths for the majority of the route\, but it is important to note that the terrain can be very challenging at times with some steep accents and descents as well as areas of boggy ground. This walk should only be undertaken if you have a good level of fitness. The walk incorporates stiles and steep terrain. Please ensure you dress for the weather and bring sturdy walking boots. There are toilets at the lunch stop\, halfway into the walk. No dogs are permitted on the High Helbeck walks. \nOutside ‘The Inn at Brough’ pub. Please park considerately in Brough village if you have to travel by car.  If you are unsure of directions\, please contact Chris Jones (cjones@northpenninesaonb.org.uk). \nOnce you have confirmed your booking we will contact you in regards to your dietary requirements. \n\n\n\n \n \n\n\nImage © Paul Henry / High Helbeck estate URL:https://northpennines.org.uk/event/swindale-circular-challenge-walk-with-live-folk-music/ LOCATION:The Inn at Brough\, The Inn at Brough Main Street\, Brough Westmorland\, Cumbria\, CA17 4AX\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Guided walk ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://northpennines.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Paul-3.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="North Pennines National Landscape":MAILTO:communications@northpennines.org.uk END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
