A multi-disciplinary art exhibition by thalassophiles
Pale Blue Dot Collective presents its inaugural exhibition, Rising, exploring the anthropogenic impact on our coasts and seas. The sea provides an apt metaphor for our tumultuous political times; moments of serenity before stormy waves break the shoreline.

There will be an artist film screening to accompany the Rising exhibition on 29th September starting at 6.45pm.
