  • About the Project:

    Travelling Tales combines real and imagined stories to decorate large light art storybooks for display. These stories are currently from across the North East, with the books previously being displayed as a set of four across County Durham displayed at eight different sites from November 2024 to March 2025. The books were most recently displayed in Blyth as a set of two, from October 24th to November 27th 2025 at Blyth Library as part of Blyth Celebrates.
