Rediscover the town through the hidden beauty of its Victorian architecture.

The project shines a spotlight on the decorative brickwork that wraps around Heanor’s historic buildings – especially the patterned string courses that sit just below the roofline. These small details often go unnoticed, yet they tell rich stories about the town’s past. 

Get hands-on with family friendly printing workshops, exploring patterns up close, and experimenting with shapes and motifs, to create your own decorative tiles using a range of accessible techniques.

A chance for all ages to get hands-on, learn something new, and see familiar streets with fresh eyes.

With Aby Dennett.
