About
Please note that this exhibition is at Belsay Hall.
Reimagining Ancient Greece is a collaboration between Newcastle University and the Great North Museum: Hancock, working in partnership with English Heritage and Belsay School.
Great North Museum: Hancock keeper of archaeology Andrew Parkin and Newcastle University's Dr Sally Waite have been working with Belsay School to develop a curriculum on Ancient Greece for 7-9 year olds.
The pupils have produced artworks inspired by objects from the Shefton Collection of Greek archaeology, which is housed at the Great North Museum: Hancock.
The exhibition is a chance to see the children's art alongside the ancient artefacts in the Greek Revival setting of Belsay Hall.
For more information, please read this blog by Dr Sally Waite and Andrew Parkin.
