Science of Sand with James Hankey
In March 2019, we travelled to the Isles of Scilly with artist James Hankey to run workshops with primary school groups on four of the islands. The workshops, entitled ‘Science of Sand’, included a range of activities to explore sand: how it’s made and what you can make with it. Read our case study, Science of Sand project to find out more.
