Swing Together & The Dig In Sand Pit

Artist: Paula Birtwistle

Location: Victoria Park

All three days, 5pm - 9pm

Taking a traditional playground favourite and re-imagining it, Swing Together are extra wide swings suspended from trees in Victoria Park that light up the sky in motion. Sit with a child, friend or loved one and enjoy the magical movement together. A glowing sandpit and sensory delight joins the playground theme. Dig into a sandpit that glows from within and changes colour as you sketch patterns with your fingers or build sandcastles from reclaimed beach toys.

Artist Bio:

Weston-based artist and producer Paula Birtwistle conceived and designed the annual light festival GLOW in Weston-super -Mare’s Grove Park. As well as many co-produced community art installations the event is characterised by a range of fun playful light up features that Paula brings to the event. Some of these will be making a guest appearance at We Shine bringing a touch of GLOW to Victoria park.
