Giant art installation takes over Ashington park
06 May 2025
A stunning land art installation in The People's Park, Ashington, is now complete.
As part of the Animating Ashington project, artist James Brunt, supported by Rob Conway, created the giant "Heart of Ashington" work that took shape day by day over recent weeks.
The finished piece spans around 80 metres and should remain in place until Mid May. A tribute to the town and beautiful celebration of nature, creativity and connection, it's well worth a visit.
Commissioned by Northumberland County Council and delivered by Walk the Plank, Animating Ashington is funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and the North East Combined Authority.
It is part of the Regenerating Ashington Programme to grow, renew, and connect the town.
