Fiona Grady was commissioned by the Thames Festival Trust to work with pupils at The Aldgate School, London to make collaborative artworks that explore the stories of the River Thames. The outcome of the project will be on display at the Millennium Bridge in September.
River of Hope is an arts-based learning project that uses environmental themes and creative arts practice to help young people express their concerns about the climate crisis. Under the guidance of artists Shona Watt and Fiona Grady and supported by river visits with Thames Explorer Trust and Cody Dock, pupils have created original artworks, inspired by their local rivers.
