Baltic Creative Climate Club

Creative Climate Club is a free, monthly meeting for people who care about nature and are interested in creatively responding to the world around us, our local environment, and wider climate issues.

The monthly meetings will involve creative activities which can help us care for the environment, such as:

• Creative opportunities with artists such as painting, collage, sketch-booking and photography.
• Opportunities to learn with local community experts such as bee foraging walks, pond ecology and talks about the Rive Tyne and its health.
• The chance to make a connection with local nature, wildlife and planting of urban spaces, such as a ‘garden crawl’ to local community gardens.

Over time, members of the club will collaborate to develop our next steps, identifying practical tasks like litter picks, gardening and tree planting that we’d like to collectively participate in, new places we’d like to visit and people we’d like to hear from, and creative activities we can respond with.

Held in our Front Room for ages 13+.

August's session will be a practical, creative, environmental art workshop with artist Megan Randall.

September's session will be a 'Garden Crawl' visiting community garden spaces local to Baltic and finding out more about them.

At October's session Nic from Dilston Physic Garden will be joining us at Baltic to talk about the garden's 2-acre oasis of natural habitat featuring 700 European medicinal species and the scientific evidence that the physic garden is rooted in.
