River of Hope 2025: Devon & Cornwall

Children from primary schools across Devon and Cornwall have created river inspired artworks using natural dyes which they have made from plants, vegetables and fruit found in their local area. They have worked with artist Ione Rojas, who led a series of outdoor learning activities by their local waterfronts, including some nature-based mindfulness, drawing and wildlife ID to give students inspiration and information for making their final art piece. These built on the natural ink techniques and wildlife themes they worked on in the previous year
